¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ remains committed to its position that a permanent solution must be found for issues at the Rest and be Thankful as swiftly as possible.
This was agreed at the meeting of full council on Thursday, September 26.
Councillor Jim Lynch, Leader of the Council, said: “The Council is united on this issue and we have a strong track record of working together, across the chamber, to call for action when it is needed. It is tremendously important to the communities each one of us represents. We welcome progress that is made, but remain focused on the urgency of that permanent solution. For as long as such action is needed, we want this approach to continue.
“This will remain a strategic priority for the council.â€
Councillor John Armour, Policy Lead for Road, Transport and Amenity Services, said: “We will continue to speak up for ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ and Bute and its communities on this matter at every possible opportunity, directly with national government when needed as well as through the A83 Taskforce. We welcome the investment made and actions taken to date. However, this is a vitally significant route, for all aspects of life in ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ and Bute, so we must continue to press just how important it is for work to continue at pace.â€
