Drifting smoke caused by a wildfire has closed the Dornoch Bridge.
Firefighters are tackling the grass fire on land described as “adjacent” to the bridge on the A9 Inverness to Thurso road.
Two fire crews are currently in attendance at the scene.
A spokesman for the police said the bridge is likely to be closed for more than an hour and advised motorists to follow diversions via Edderton and Clashmore.
