THE A83 in Argyll has reopened after being battered by heavy rain that caused several landslips.
Bear Scotland said about 12,000 tonnes of mud and rocks had been removed from the road near the Rest and Be Thankful, which was hit by seven landslides.
Of the landslides reported, Bear Scotland described two, at the A815 junction with Dunoon, as "very substantial".
The road is now clear of debris and safe for drivers to use, according to the road management operator.
The area around the A83 near Inveraray saw a month's worth of rainfall - about 160mm -over 36 hours from Friday evening into Saturday.

Ten people had to be airlifted from their vehicles on the A83 on Saturday. A HM Coastguard helicopter was used to take them to safety. There were no injuries.
The closure of the A815 junction left communities in villages such as Strachur and Cairndow temporarily shut-off.
Argyll and Bute Council have also confirmed the A815 will reopen, but the B828 road to Lochgoilhead will remain closed due to flood damage.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
