Throughout the year a large number of people come to visit our beautiful islands to enjoy a well earned holiday in the peace andtranquillity of the Western Isles. However there is a hazard which some drivers may never have come across - single track roads.

Here are a few tips for people driving on these roads:● Use passing places properly – you stop on your nearside

(passenger side) please do not cross over to the other side of the road.

● Don’t be distracted - you may be enjoying the scenery but please let traffic flow freely. Check your mirrors regularly and allow vehicles to pass.

● Speed – don’t drive too fast for the road conditions and especially when you don’t know the area.

● Expect the unexpected – animals may decide to wander onto the road at any time and also be aware of mud or other debris.

● Beware of cyclists/walkers – please allow them plenty room as you pass by. In relation to cyclists – please wait at the passing place for them to reach you and also cyclists please wait at the passing place if you see a car coming rather than try to carry on.

● Horses – Drivers should watch out for horses on the road,especially when approaching bends and on narrow rural roads.Always slow down when seeing a horse and pass by slowly.Give them plenty of room and be ready to stop if necessary.Drivers should never sound their horn or rev their engine near horses.

● As always – do not drink and drive, do not use your phone whilst driving and always wear your seatbelt.

Head for Castlebay to see the best of Barra and Vatersay – fromcrafting to crafting and cooking to catching fish, the IslandProduce Show and Sale offers something for everyone whatevertheir personal preferences.

This year the show will also be used to launch the exciting BarraBunting project (see page 2) where locals and visitors areinvited to create a flag in honour of the islands, the onlycondition of participation is that the makers have set foot on thesoil of one of the two islands.
