B9176 snow warning signs
VMS and fold out signs on the B9176 Struie Hill road to warn of when the snow gates are closed.
This road rises to 242m even though it starts at near sea level at either end of its 14 mile length which means some steep climbs and being very exposed at the summit makes it suceptable to snow in the winter.
