Scotland TranServ has recently been trialling a scheme involving the social network site twitter to provide live feeds to motorists on the progress of roadworks. A trial twitter page was set up for the roadworks, with overnight road closures, carried out on the A83 between Inverary and Cairndow, and Scotland TranServ believes overall the trial was a success. As a result of good progress with the works during the trial the road was opened early every night, and everyone following the twitter page would be made aware of this in real time.
