A82 road (Great Britain) : ウィキペディア英語版
A82 road

}}
The A82 is a road in Scotland that runs from Glasgow to Inverness by way of Fort William. The majority of the route is a trunk road and hence managed by Transport Scotland, who view the road as a vitally important link through the Scottish Highlands and beyond.
The road passes close to some of the most notable landmarks in the Highlands, including Loch Lomond, Rannoch Moor, Glen Coe, Ben Nevis, the Commando Memorial, Loch Ness and Urquhart Castle. Several travel guides have praised individual parts of the road, such as the section from Tyndrum to Glencoe across Rannoch Moor, as providing memorable driving experiences. At ,〔 the road is the second longest A-road in Scotland, after the A9, and has been described as the "slower but more scenic route" of the two.
The A82 has an extensive history. It is derived in several places from the military roads constructed through the Highlands by General Wade and Major Caulfeild during the early to mid 18th century,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=General Wade's bridges and roads )〕 along with later roads constructed by Thomas Telford in the early 19th. The modern route is based on that designed by Telford, but with a number of improvements primarily dating from the 1920s and '30s. These include a diversion across Rannoch Moor and another around Loch Leven, which was subsequently replaced by the Ballachulish Bridge.
The A82 is a popular route for tourists due to its extensive scenery, and it serves as the main artery for commercial and heavy goods traffic through the area. Transport Scotland have publicly declared a commitment to improve the road, and a number of congestion and safety improvements are being made. Parts of the road are occasionally closed for maintenance, which has resulted in strong protest from the local community.
== Route ==
The A82 was one of the first trunk roads, which were created in 1936, and has historically been described in official government documentation as part of the "London - Carlisle - Glasgow - Inverness Trunk Road" in which the A6 and A74 make up the rest of the route. On 1 April 1996, however, the section from Glasgow to the Dalnottar Interchange with the A898 was detrunked. The main length of the A82, as managed by Transport Scotland, is now described in statutory instruments and orders as the "Dalnottar - Inverness Trunk Road".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Traffic Scotland : About Us )〕 From Glasgow to Dalnottar, the route is now the responsibility of the Glasgow City Council and the West Dunbartonshire Council in their respective areas.
