Whilst current, economic conditions may seem somewhat different, it is fully expected that demand for development will return and the study looked at the transport problems in the context of Perth and its immediate surroundings, considering local and regional transport issues where appropriate. The study was completed in accordance with the Scottish Transport Appraisal Guidance (STAG) which provides a clear and robust framework to identify potential transport interventions. This study was also in progress in advance of the publication of the Strategic Transport Projects Review (STPR) by Transport Scotland in December 2008 and it was therefore not possible to include proposals for the grade-separation of Inveralmond and Broxden at the option generation and testing stages. However, supplementary work was undertaken in the later stages of the study which takes into account STPR proposals for the Perth area, the findings of which were reported within the Perth Traffic and Transport Issues STAG Report (PTTI STAG). The recommendations from the PTTI STAG taken forward to further consideration as part of this Design Manual for Roads & Bridges Stage 1 Preliminary Assessment are the Cross Tay Link Road and the Western Edge Link. 1.2 Shaping Perth’s Transport Future Strategic Environmental Assessment Perth & Kinross Council requested that a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) of the recommendations from the PTTI STAG was carried out with the Environmental Report being published in October 2010. Following consultation, an Addendum to the Environmental Report was published in 2011 and recommended that an amended CTLR Corridor option located between Option C and E which takes account of the environmental constraints identified in the environmental assessment is progressed to the DMRB stage and assessed against the original three route corridors. This amended corridor reflects the preferred corridor on environmental grounds, however the SEA reporting recognised that further assessment work is required as part of the DMRB study to assess this corridor against other factors such as engineering, traffic and economic impacts and constraints. 1.3 Shaping Perth’s Transport Future Strategy This high level strategy document, published October 2010, brought together the findings from the previous studies into a single document to support the consultation process. Following publication of the Local Development Plan Main Issues Report, Oct 2010, and subsequent consultations (summarised in the Shaping Perth’s Transport Future Consultation Statement, November 2011) the finalised Shaping Perth’s Transport Future Strategy was published in November 2011.

Introduction Thank you for your letter dated 27 January and the notice of the public exhibitions concerning the Tay Crossing to Ballinluig section of the Dualling Programme. As we are unable to attend the exhibitions, we provide initial observations below, based on our assessment of the options. Please note that our contact details have changed and future correspondence should be addressed to David Gibson, CEO, at the above address, email [email protected] Mountaineering Scotland is the only recognised representative organisation for hill walkers, climbers, mountaineers and ski-tourers who live in Scotland or who enjoy Scotland’s mountains, and acts to represent, support and promote Scottish mountaineering. Mountaineering Scotland also acts on behalf of the BMC (British Mountaineering Council) on matters related to landscape and access in Scotland, and provides training and information to mountain users to promote safety, self-reliance and the enjoyment of our mountain environment. These notes have been prepared in relation to the advertisement of public exhibitions to be held on 15th and 16th February 2017, following the announcement of the Preferred Corridor and Route Decision on 5th December 2016. The purpose of these exhibitions is to give local communities and road users the opportunity to see and comment on the outcome of the route option assessment work and the preferred option for the Tay Crossing to Ballinluig dualling project - part of the A9 Dualling Programme.

    9 RTP/20/45 TAYSIDE AND CENTRAL SCOTLAND TRANSPORT PARTNERSHIP 15 DECEMBER 2020 A NEW REGIONAL TRANSPORT STRATEGY: MAIN ISSUES REPORT UPDATE REPORT BY SENIOR STRATEGY OFFICER This report updates the Partnership on the work to produce a new Regional Transport Strategy for the Tactran region and asks the Partnership to consider in a workshop session at the Partnership meeting (i) the strengths and weaknesses of the transport network (ii) the uncertainties of travel demand and supply. 1 RECOMMENDATIONS 1.1 That the Partnership: (i) Notes continuing work on a new Regional Transport Strategy, and the proposed next steps, including further discussion of the Main Issues Report in early 2021; (ii) Considers the strengths and weaknesses of the transport networks, and uncertainties in terms of travel demands and supply. 2 BACKGROUND 2.1 Regional Transport Strategies have statutory status, as provided for in the Transport (Scotland) Act 2005 (The Act). The Act places a duty on constituent Councils, Health Boards and other public bodies to perform their functions which relate to, or which are affected by transport, consistently with their respective Regional Transport Strategy. The Act requires that Regional Transport Partnerships (RTPs) keep their strategies under review. 2.2 The Partnership Meeting of 15 September 2020 approved the work of preparing a new Regional Transport Strategy (RTS) (report RTP/20/32 refers). 3 DISCUSSION Process 3.1 At the Partnership meeting in September, commitment was given to working with Councils to identify the key issues to be consulted on in a Main Issues Report (MIR), and then to discuss these issues at the December meeting of the Partnership.

  • Caithness and Sutherland Proposed Local Development Plan Committee Version November, 2015
    Caithness and Sutherland Proposed Local Development Plan Committee Version November, 2015 Proposed CaSPlan The Highland Council Foreword Foreword Foreword to be added after PDI committee meeting The Highland Council Proposed CaSPlan About this Proposed Plan About this Proposed Plan The Caithness and Sutherland Local Development Plan (CaSPlan) is the second of three new area local development plans that, along with the Highland-wide Local Development Plan (HwLDP) and Supplementary Guidance, will form the Highland Council’s Development Plan that guides future development in Highland. The Plan covers the area shown on the Strategy Map on page 3). CaSPlan focuses on where development should and should not occur in the Caithness and Sutherland area over the next 10-20 years. Along the north coast the Pilot Marine Spatial Plan for the Pentland Firth and Orkney Waters will also influence what happens in the area. This Proposed Plan is the third stage in the plan preparation process. It has been approved by the Council as its settled view on where and how growth should be delivered in Caithness and Sutherland. However, it is a consultation document which means you can tell us what you think about it. It will be of particular interest to people who live, work or invest in the Caithness and Sutherland area. In preparing this Proposed Plan, the Highland Council have held various consultations. These included the development of a North Highland Onshore Vision to support growth of the marine renewables sector, Charrettes in Wick and Thurso to prepare whole-town visions and a Call for Sites and Ideas, all followed by a Main Issues Report and Additional Sites and Issues consultation.

The walk starts and finishes at the historic ruin of the Church of St Mary in Kincardine O’Neil, the oldest village on Deeside. The present structure dates back to the 14thC but it is believed to have been a place of Christian worship from the 6thC. This walking route takes in a number of old roads, starting with Gallowhill Road, its purpose deriving from Medieval times when every feudal baron was required to erect a gibbet (gallows) for the execution of male criminals, and sink a well or pit, for the drowning of females! Soon after, the route follows a short section of the Old Deeside Road, now a farm track, which dates to before the great agricultural improvements that started in the 1700's.
