Rest and Be Thankful has partially reopened after a series of landslides last week.
Old Military Road has reopened after heavy rain and winds forced its closure alongside the notorious A83.
It will stay open until 6pm before being reassessed by workers on Tuesday morning.
The A83 remains closed to all traffic, with motorists being redirected via the A85 at Dalmally.
Both roads have been closed since Tuesday, when around 2,500 tonnes of material came down the slope above the A83 at the Rest and Be Thankful during heavy rain.
Work to clear the route was delayed when Storm Callum brought heavy rain to the area, causing further landsliips.
Work was carried out to make them safe but there were further landslips on Friday morning, as Storm Callum brought heavy rain to the area.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
