Road closed after landslip in Fife

The C45 is currently closed for further assessment and to allow debris to be cleared.

A landslip on the C45 at Dura Den, near Cupar, has caused the road to be temporarily closed.

Fife Council said that specialist investigation will need to happen before the road can be re-opened.

Ross Speirs, service manager, said: "The landslip resulted in debris falling onto the road. Our initial assessment has shown that a more specialist investigation will be needed before we can be sure that the road is safe to use.

"We'll need to keep the road closed while that investigation work takes place and to allow us to clear the fallen debris.

"The safety of local residents and road users is our priority and therefore the road will remain closed until the results of the investigation are available when a further assessment will be made."
