A scheme to resurface the car parks in South Beach and Perceval Square, Stornoway along with the Tarbert car park is getting under way this month.

Comhairle nan Eilean Siar is warning that vehicles will have to be removed from the car parks.

CnES "would like to give advance notice of the following dates for closures and restrictions in parking availability of South Beach Carpark, Perceval Square Carpark and Tarbert Carpark to allow resurfacing works to be carried out."

The full details are:
