My round trip is already 120 miles day. The closures at the Rest cause significant issues for my travel to work, the diversion via Crianlarich adds more than 2 hours to my journey time & an extra 80 miles to my daily trip. The other diversion through ferry route (Gourock-Dunoon) takes just as long but with the addtional cost of the ferry. These costs which I can not sustain if these closures continue to occur. Unless a permenant resolution is decided to secure a safe passage through the Rest, the viability of my employment with The Scottish Salmon Company at Ardkinglas Esate in Cairndow is at risk. So I plead with Scottish Government to do something now otherwise my employment along with many others may be at risk.

Many thanks for your time.
