The slip grew significantly at the weekend and the road, which is a major road into the central city, is now completely covered by large boulders and rubble.
Council spokesperson Richard MacLean said a few rocks are still falling, but the slip had not grown much overnight.
Mr MacLean said the road will be closed until at least mid-week.
