A Google Maps glitch has caused vehicles to leave the A9 and travel through several Perthshire villages, creating traffic chaos in Ballinluig, Tulliemet and Guay.
The affected route has directed traffic away from the A9 and towards the three villages. The disruption has raised concerns about the impact of diverted vehicles on the local communities, although no further details about the scale or duration of the problem were provided.
The issue centres on inaccurate or inappropriate route guidance from Google Maps. The latest situation, including whether the mapping error has been corrected and when normal traffic conditions are expected to return, was not confirmed in the available information.
