The UCI World Mountain Bike Championships take place this weekend
The public are being told to expect traffic delays due to an increased number of vehicles on and around the A82 near Fort William during the UCI World Mountain Bike Championships this weekend.
A shuttle bus system will be in operation during the event between Nevis Range and Fort William.
Lochaber Area Inspector Isla Campbell said: “We are looking forward to supporting this annual event again this weekend. I would advise the public to allow extra time for their journeys as we are expecting the area to be busy with increased traffic.
“People attending the event should follow the travel advice of the event organisers and use the park and ride facilities in Fort William as there is no vehicle access or parking at the event.
“We will be policing the event and surrounding area and ask that vehicles are parked sensibly as illegally or inconsiderately parked vehicles will be removed if necessary.
“This is to ensure access remains for the event and that the local community and users of the A82 public road between Spean Bridge and Fort William are not unnecessarily inconvenienced.”
