3 Alternatives Considered
Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route Environmental Statement Part A: The Scheme 3 Alternatives Considered 3.1 Introduction 3.1.1 This chapter provides an outline of the development of the AWPR including an overview of the assessment work that has been undertaken in the selection of a preferred route and a summary of the objectives of the proposed scheme. 3.2 Background 3.2.1 As described in Chapter 2 (Need for the Scheme), a peripheral route around Aberdeen has been considered since the 1950s, and in the 1990s a western leg route corridor was proposed (the Western Peripheral Route; WPR). The WPR as identified by Grampian Regional Council and its successor authorities was subsequently extended to link with the A90 north of Aberdeen by NESTRANS. The route corridor comprising the WPR and this additional link was named the AWPR and in April 2003 was adopted and promoted by the Scottish Executive as a Trunk Road within a funding partnership of the Scottish Executive, Aberdeen City Council, and Aberdeenshire Council. 3.2.2 The AWPR was refined within this corridor from April 2003 until December 2004, when Transport Scotland requested that consideration be given to additional corridors. In December 2005, following consideration of the alternative corridors, including public consultation held in Spring 2005, the Minister for Transport announced that the AWPR would be taken forward on the Milltimber Brae Route with a Fastlink to Stonehaven. 3.2.3 Various options have been considered at each of the stages described above. The option consideration process included production of many reports and papers that set out the engineering, economic and environmental advantages and disadvantages of alternative routes and corridors.

Portlethen Moss - Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia Page 1 of 4
Portlethen Moss - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Page 1 of 4 Portlethen Moss NFrom, 2°8′50.68 Wikipedia,″W (http://kvaleberg.com/extensions/mapsources the free encyclopedia /index.php?params=57_3_27.04_N_2_8_50.68_W_region:GB) The Portlethen Moss is an acidic bog nature reserve in the coastal Grampian region in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Like other mosses, this wetland area supports a variety of plant and animal species, even though it has been subject to certain development and agricultural degradation pressures. For example, the Great Crested Newt was found here prior to the expansion of the town of Portlethen. Many acid loving vegetative species are found in Portlethen Moss, and the habitat is monitored by the Scottish Wildlife Trust. True heather, a common plant on the The Portlethen Moss is the location of considerable prehistoric, Portlethen Moss Middle Ages and seventeenth century history, largely due to a ridge through the bog which was the route of early travellers. By at least the Middle Ages this route was more formally constructed with raised stonework and called the Causey Mounth. Without this roadway, travel through the Portlethen Moss and several nearby bogs would have been impossible between Aberdeen and coastal points to the south. Contents 1 History 2 Conservation status 3 Topography and meteorology 4 Evolution of Portlethen Moss 5 Vegetation 6 Relation to other mosses 7 References 8 See also History Prehistoric man inhabited the Portlethen Moss area as evidenced by well preserved Iron Age stone circles and other excavated artefacts nearby [1]. Obviously only the outcrops and ridge areas would have been habitable, but the desirability of primitive habitation would have been enhanced by proximity to the sea and natural defensive protection of the moss to impede intruders.

AWPR Land Use Chapter
Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route Environmental Statement 2007 Part D: Fastlink 37 Land Use This chapter addresses the potential effects on existing and future land use within the Fastlink section of the proposed scheme. Agriculture is the main land use in the study area and the construction of the proposed scheme would result in a permanent loss of approximately 127 hectares (ha) of agricultural land. Mitigation measures to reduce the impacts on agricultural businesses will include the provision of bridges or underpasses over and under the proposed scheme to maintain access to fields severed by the route. Mitigation would also include reconnection of field drainage systems, watering points for livestock and reinstatement of boundary features. The assessment found that no farms would have their viability compromised by the proposed scheme. The main commercial and residential area within the study area is Stonehaven. In addition, there are scattered properties situated in the surrounding countryside and a few non- agricultural commercial properties. The access to four businesses would be affected (one of them adversely) by the proposed scheme and of these, one business would also be directly affected by land-take. The proposed scheme would not require the demolition of any residential properties within the Fastlink study area. The proposed scheme would also affect community land, predominantly in the form of woodland. However, mitigation planting would result in a net gain of woodland in the study area. 37.1 Introduction 37.1.1 This chapter addresses the potential effects of the proposed scheme on existing and future land use within the Fastlink study area.

41 Landscape
Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route Environmental Statement Part D: Fastlink 41 Landscape This chapter describes the impacts of the Fastlink section of the proposed scheme on the surrounding landscape. The landscape in this area is predominantly rural, characterised by rolling hills, areas of woodland and open farmland, with scattered settlement and small villages. It is generally assessed as being of medium sensitivity to change. Mitigation measures to integrate the road into the landscape include careful alignment and grading out of cuttings and embankments to reflect the local topography and enable the land to be returned to agriculture where appropriate. Drystone walls will be reinstated as roadside boundaries in open farmland, while mixed/broadleaf and scrub woodland are proposed in areas where the surrounding landscape is more wooded and where integration, replacement, restoration or screening is required. Planting mitigation measures will reduce the impact of the proposed scheme over time as vegetation matures. 15 years after opening, residual impacts are assessed as ranging from substantial to moderate where the Fastlink divides a sensitive rural valley at the Burn of Muchalls, cuts through the hillsides at Megray, Cookney and Stranog and crosses open farmland on embankment at Blaikiewell. 41.1 Introduction 41.1.1 This chapter details the assessment of the landscape impacts of the Fastlink section of the AWPR. The Fastlink study area runs from Stonehaven to the southern edge of Cleanhill Wood. The assessment methodologies are explained, including details of the main sources of information that were utilised. The baseline conditions are described and any potential impacts that may occur as a consequence of the proposed scheme are considered.
