Given the state of many highland and island roads, there's little point in making any improvement in the links to/between the islands.

I note the the recent royal visit to Campbeltown avoided the Rest and be thankful in a way that's not available to many locals or visitors.

Indeed. It is rather sad that roads which were built to serve a transport system that consisted of a bus a week and the odd lorry, are still in existence today when almost everyone uses some form of transport daily.

If it wasn’t for the Machrihanish RAF base the road from Glasgow would probably still be single track with passing places and Ardrishaig might still have some nicer buildings on the Main Street.
