🚜 BLACK ISLE SHOW 2026 – TRAVEL ADVISORY

With another fantastic Belladrum behind us, attention now turns to one of the Highlands’ most iconic events – the Black Isle Show.

Taking place on Thursday 6th August, thousands of visitors are expected to travel to Muir of Ord, and temporary traffic management will be in place to help keep everyone moving safely.

Whether you’re heading to the show or simply travelling through the area, here’s what you need to know:

🚧 The B9169 (Industrial Estate Road) will be prioritised for event traffic, with access maintained for local businesses.

🚧 Temporary road closures and reduced speed limits will be in operation around the showground to support the safe movement of vehicles and pedestrians.

🚧 Please follow the official event signage and directions from traffic management operatives rather than relying solely on your sat nav.

🚧 If you’re not attending the show, consider allowing a little extra journey time or choosing an alternative route during the busiest arrival and departure periods.

The Black Isle Show is always a highlight of the Highland calendar, bringing together the very best of Scottish agriculture, livestock, equestrian events, rural businesses and family entertainment.

At Alba Traffic Management, we’re proud to support events that bring our communities together by helping keep Scotland’s roads safe and traffic flowing.

Have a fantastic day if you’re heading along, and safe travels to everyone on the road.

🚦 TRAFFIC LIGHT MYTH BUSTER 🚦

❌ Myth: Flash your headlights and the temporary traffic lights will change.

✅ Fact: They won’t.

Many of the temporary traffic lights we use are fitted with sensors that detect approaching vehicles. Once a vehicle is detected, the traffic lights begin their programmed sequence, allowing traffic to pass safely through the works before changing to the opposite direction.

Flashing your headlights won’t make them change any quicker.

They’re designed to keep traffic moving safely while protecting both road users and the workforce.

💬 Have you ever heard this myth, or even tried it yourself?
