A landslide has closed the B8083 Broadford to Elgol road in Skye
Approximately 200 tonnes of rubble and trees fell onto a narrow stretch of the single track road this morning, with the road blocked from about 7.30am
Highland Council road operatives were hopeful of clearing the road this afternoon to let local traffic through, although ongoing remedial work and assessment of potential problems further up the hillside will have to be carried out
