Pressure is mounting to accelerate the A9 dualling project after Perthshire man George Leslie Norris was named as the 12th person to die on the major road this year.
The 64-year-old from Bankfoot was the driver of a silver Ford C-Max travelling south on the A9 near Kingussie at around 6.45pm on October 12 when it was involved in a collision with a Merdedes Sprinter van and a blue Renault Captur, both travelling north.
Despite the attentions of emergency crews, Mr Norris was pronounced dead at the scene.
