Villagers in Balfron face five more weeks of disruption after a burst water main caused the closure of a recently-opened route.
The 48-inch water main has burst at the Ballochruin Bridge which is a popular route for walkers.
The area surrounding the bridge has been a regular site for water main problems, with the road being closed for five months from last September until January this year due to an issue with a different section of the pipe on the other side of the bridge.
