The String road is to close for resurfacing work.
A meeting is to be held with community representatives next week to decide the best dates.
The move came after resurfacing work between Glenshurig and the String road summit was called off for a second time. The work was originally planned for last month before being rescheduled to Monday November 14. However, the contractor, Hillhouse Quarry, has since evaluated the site and decided it will be necessary to temporarily close the road to carry out the works which has led to a rescheduled start date.
