Eriskay Causeway
Eriskay Causeway
Looking from South Uist towards Eriskay. The causeway was opened in 2002 by the Earl and Countess of Wessex. Does having a causeway mean that Eriskay is no longer an Island? The triangular sign on the left of the carriageway carries a warning about otters crossing the road.
