The A87 road runs beside the eastern side of the loch. The first proper road across the Loyne was begun in 1821 by the engineer Thomas Telford as part of the later stage of military road building. The road connected Tomdoun and Inchlaggan near the River Garry with the road and inn at Loch Cluanie to the north. The road ran across the Loyne over a stone arch bridge. Much of the original road survives either side of the loch, although the bridge across the river along with a segment of the road was flooded with the building of the dam. Occasionally the bridge has been visible when water levels are low in the loch.
