The car hit a building.
A 43-year-old Inverness woman appeared in private from custody charged with the attempted murder of three men following a car crash in the city.
It is alleged that Donna Stewart, from Inverness, was at the wheel of a Mercedes E220 when it careered into the side of a building at the junction of Grant Street and Lochalsh Road on January 21.
Last week, stage 2 works to provide additional external propping and structural scaffolding were completed.
This has made the building safe enough for stage 3 internal works to be carried out this week.
The engineer and contractors are finalising the design of these works and work inside the building will start tomorrow.
The council expects the internal measures to make the building safe will be completed by the end of this week.
The current temporary diversion for all traffic will remain in place meantime.
Once all stage 3 works are completed, expected to be next week, the council says there will be an opportunity to reassess the traffic management arrangements, but external scaffolding will need to remain in place until the building owners complete all works.
