The first public displays setting out the logistical and environmental impact of the first £40 million section of the upgrade, from Kincraig to Dalraddy in the Highlands, will be unveiled this month.

Rod's rare Lamborghini up for sale

A RARE LAMBORGHINI once owned by Rod Stewart is being sold - for nearly £1 million.

The pristine four-litre blue sports car with silver trim has recently undergone a £100,000 restoration and is being sold on AutoTrader for £899,999.
