  • HITRANS BROADFORD AIRPORT SKYE BACKGROUND NOTE for MEETING with CIVIL AVIATION AUTHORITY Introduction 1. HITRANS Is the Statutor
    HITRANS BROADFORD AIRPORT SKYE BACKGROUND NOTE FOR MEETING WITH CIVIL AVIATION AUTHORITY Introduction 1. HITRANS is the Statutory Transport Partnership for the Highlands and Islands established by the Transport Scotland Act 2005. One of the primary duties of the Partnership is to prepare a Regional Transport Strategy. This Strategy must include the development and improvement of transport provision, having regard to the future needs of the region to enhance social and economic well being. The Strategy was submitted to the Minister in March 2007 and awaits his determination. 2. Surface transport from Skye to Central Scotland is 7.5 hours by rail from Kyle; 6.5 hours by bus from Portree; and 5.5 hours by car from Portree. Skye is the only part of the region with significant population (12,000 residents) which has such lengthy travel times without an alternative faster air service. Therefore, in response to the need to improve journey times and enhance the economy of Skye, the Regional Transport Strategy includes the aspiration for air services from Skye to Glasgow or Edinburgh. The Proposed Delivery Plan which accompanies the Strategy identifies the development of Skye airport in the medium term 2013-2017. 3. The HITRANS air network proposals were prepared in 2002 as part of the campaign to reduce air fares on the flights serving the region. These proposals included a Skye to Edinburgh air service because the market testing had revealed potential for a twice daily rotation of a 30 seat aircraft. The proposals were presented to the CAA for information at a meeting in Gatwick in 2002.

Dear MacLeod, It is fitting that I should dedicate this book to you. You have been interested in its making and in its publica- tion, and how fiattering that is to an author s vanity / And what chief is there who is so beloved of his clansmen all over the world as you, or whose fiame is such a household word in dear old Skye as is yours ? A book about Skye should recognise these things, and so I inscribe your name on this page. Your Sincere Friend, THE A UTHOR. 8G54S7 EXILED FROM SKYE. The sun shines on the ocean, And the heavens are bhie and high, But the clouds hang- grey and lowering O'er the misty Isle of Skye. I hear the blue-bird singing, And the starling's mellow cry, But t4eve the peewit's screaming In the distant Isle of Skye.
