In case anyone plans on traveling up from south of the border (West side), note that part of the M74 is closed all weekend from Friday night till Monday morning.

Future closures will correlate almost precisely with good conditions on the Ben and elsewhere.

You are the Scottish equivalent of Donald J Trump for spreading misinformation.

In reply to J_Trottet:

Haha, I thought this was a piss-take...i.e. there's good conditions, let's tell everyone the road's closed.

That sounds like a comment on BBC bias?

Some fellow people of Sheffield felt similar about the flooding of a village in the Somerset levels where nobody died getting loads more coverage than the flooding of the city of Sheffield where people did.

Hey ho.

Hilarious!
BTW Is that supposed to be good or bad news? And for whom?

Amazing
Donald Trump might be having second thoughts about building a wall and calling Transport Scotland for advice instead.

Look on the bright side, when they finish building the new roads you'll be able to get out of England quicker.

Spoke like a true Edinburgher.
Conversely it might be better for everyone getting out of Scotland quickly before the oil runs out

Why do I have to be working 13 hour days this weekend?! If anyone fancies stomping out a nice trail into Coire an Lochain for us to use on Monday, I would be most grateful.

It's a pretty easy path just now. As long as there isn't much fresh snow you'll be good to go.
