The Kessock Bridge, which carries the A9 across the Beauly Firth at Inverness, will be up-graded over a four-month period with the works prompting the area's biggest traffic management upheaval in living memory.
More than 30,000 vehicles a day use the bridge with 11% of these HGV lorries. It carries all those who commute in and out of Inverness from the Black Isle, Easter Ross and beyond as well as being the main A9 artery to the north.
