The Great Mosstodloch Traffic Jam
Image: © Anne Burgess Taken: 11 May 2011
As part of the construction of the new bypass for Fochabers and Mosstodloch, it has been necessary to reduce the A96 to single file traffic, and this is the result. Traffic queueing for almost a mile in Mosstodloch. They say it's only for a week, but how many more times is something similar going to happen? It's a splendid disincentive to going anywhere west of the River Spey! See also Image
