A carriageway surface failure on the Ross road has led to an emergency road closure by North Ayrshire Council for heavy goods vehicles.
The stretch of road from Glenscorrodale Farm to Glenree Farm has been closed since Wednesday October 11, where access is restricted for heavy good vehicles over 7.5 tonnes.
Normal passenger vehicles are unaffected by the closure, however heavy goods vehicles will be required to use a diversionary route around the southern half of the island for a period of 21 days.
