  • Access and Transport Baseline Report 2019
    Access and Transport Baseline Report 2019 Produced as part of the Wester Ross Destination Development Plan preliminary research Context Upwards of an estimated c.100,000 tourists visit Wester Ross each year, sustaining local communities through their input to the local economy and tourism accounts for 35% of employment[1]. However, in the current climate (Summer 2019) there are concerns that a rise in tourism of up to 27% (estimate[2]) over the past few years may not be sustainable. Although a different perspective is that this has followed a deep recession in the tourism industry and visitor numbers have yet to return to the high levels enjoyed during the 1990s, the current situation is exacerbated by Local Authority and Public Agency budget cuts which have resulted in plans to close public toilets and a deterioration in road quality. In addition, the type of visitor has changed, Wester Ross is welcoming large amounts of campervans which require waste disposal facilities which are not yet in place. Local people are reporting over-flowing carparks and bins, increasing litter pollution and irresponsible behaviour. It is not unusual for local residents to cite increased litter as a negative aspect of tourism[3] and this together with other perceived negative impacts can become challenging to tourism development as the host community begin to view visitors less than favourably. Therefore, the World Tourism Organisation advises regions to adopt a model for tourism management which considers the social as well as economical and environmental impacts of tourism[4]. Mass tourism is not going away[5]. But currently, there is no hard-empirical evidence on visitor numbers, expectations and behaviour or condition of assets in Wester Ross which would allow communities, businesses, local authorities and public agencies to plan proactively.

  • 33Kv Rebuild Grudie Bridge to Kinlochewe, Highland
    Scotia Archaeology REPORT TO SCOTTISH & SOUTHERN ENERGY 33KV REBUILD GRUDIE BRIDGE TO KINLOCHEWE, HIGHLAND Desk study and walk-over survey November 2014 to April 2015 Lismore Dollerie Terrace Crieff Perthshire Tel: 01764-652638 email: [email protected] Scotia Archaeology 2 INTRODUCTION This report describes the results of a desk study and walk-over survey of archaeological sites and monuments along the route of a proposed 33kv power line between Grudie Bridge, at the head of Loch Luichart, and Taagan, at the head of Loch Maree, 2km north-west of Kinlochewe. It extends from approximately NH 3095 6237 westwards to approximately NH 0125 6401, an overall distance of some 17km. The new line will take power generated from a large number of proposed hydro-electric stations in Wester Ross. It will run roughly parallel with an existing overhead line which distributes power to dwellings and businesses in the area but was never intended to support the new load that is to be generated. Hence there is a requirement to establish a separate, dedicated power line to cope with the new load. Some sections of the new line will be carried overhead while others will be underground. From a power station at Grudie Bridge the route will be underground, running westwards on the north side of Loch a' Chuilinn and along Strath Bran as far as a point just outside Achnasheen, at approximately NH 1576 5861. From there it will continue as an overhead line along the shore of Loch a' Chroisg to the head of Glen Docherty, at approximately NH 0779 5849.
