Seasonal & Weather Condition Restrictions. Haulage restricted to the summer months between May and September, to avoid the frost/thaw conditions which this road is particularly susceptible to. Consultation with the Area Roads Team as above would be required if haulage was planned outside this operational period, or in conditions of continuous heavy rain or winter weather.
Seasonal & Weather Condition Restrictions. Haulage should only be carried out May– September, this road is particularly susceptible to the impact of frost/thaw damage. Consultation with the council would be required if haulage was required outside this operational period and is unlikely to be endorsed.
Seasonal & Weather Condition Restrictions. Timber haulage on this road should only occur from April - October avoiding the winter period and at no more than the scheduled rate of despatch. This means that if for any reason, any timber remains after that date, there should be further consultation with the Roads Dept. prior to its movement, at a further reduced rate if necessary.

Consultation with the council would be required if haulage was required outside this operational period and is unlikely to be endorsed. (Revised – Reduced frequency for November , all works complete by 30th) Driver Awareness & Speed Limits: Drivers involved with the haulage must be familiar with the nature of the road and should have read and be in possession of this management agreement, prior to operating on this route. The maximum speed (loaded or empty) will be 20 mph. This may be reduced to 15 mph during excessively wet periods.

Seasonal & Weather Condition Restrictions. Haulage should ideally only be carried out April – October, as the unsealed section is particularly susceptible to rutting and water damage. Operations during the period October – March are likely to be susceptible to disruption due to either heavy rain or freeze/thaw conditions. Permission to operate during this period is subject to an acceptance by the harvesting agent to maintain the condition of the road to an acceptable standard for normal road going vehicles, not necessarily those with extra ground clearance. Operations must cease in times of torrential rain and immediately a thaw develops after a sustained freeze period.
Seasonal & Weather Condition Restrictions. Haulage should ideally be carried out May– September, with due consideration given to school term times.
Seasonal & Weather Condition Restrictions. The unseasonably late winter weather on 22nd March 2013 has greatly affected the whole of Kintyre and the power transmission system. SSE priority is to regain full system connection and this is likely to delay the operations on the Crossaig Trunk line project. However, if operations are planned to run in parallel during April and May 2013, consultation must be made in advance with the local Roads Team to confirm that frost damage will not be exacerbated by a heavy haulage operation. Driver Awareness & Speed Limits: Drivers must be familiar with the nature of the road and should have read and be in possession of this management agreement, prior to operating on this route. The maximum speed (loaded or empty) will be 20 mph. This may be reduced to 15 mph during excessively wet periods.
