Fort Augustus– Skye Project Consultation September 2016 Fort Augustus– Skye Project Consultation September 2016 Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks Who we are Our licence stipulates that we must develop and maintain an efficient, co-ordinated and economical system of electricity transmission. What is the difference between Transmission and Distribution? Other SSE Electricity Transmission is the transportation of Businesses electricity from generating plants to where it is required at centres of demand. Scottish Scottish Hydro Southern The Electricity Transmission network, or grid, Hydro Electric Electric Power Electric Power transports electricity at very high voltages through Transmission Plc Distribution Plc Distribution overhead wires, underground cables and subsea (SHE Transmission) (SHEPD) (SEPD) cables. The transmission network connects large scale generation, primarily renewables, to central and southern Scotland and the rest of Great Britain. We are part of Scottish and Southern The Electricity Distribution network is connected into Electricity Networks, operating under the Transmission network but the voltage is lowered by transformers at electricity substations, and the power licence as Scottish Hydro Electric is then distributed to homes and businesses through Transmission Plc for the transmission overheadOverview lines or underground of cables. of electricity in the north of Scotland.

Dalmally Perth Kincardine Denny Kintyre Hunterston Arran Fort Augustus– Skye Project Project Overview We are in the early stages of developing a project which will provide an increase of electrical capacity for the Isle of Skye. An additional 132kV overhead line to Skye is required to enable the connection of new generation located in the north of the island. This will also improve the resilience of the transmission network between Fort Augustus and Skye. The main elements of the project are as follows: • Construction of an additional, new 132kV overhead • Installation of additional equipment and minor line using a double trident H wood pole from the works at the existing Edinbane substation; and existing Fort Augustus substation to the existing • Dismantle and remove the existing 132kV overhead Broadford substation; a small section above 400m line connecting Broadford and Edinbane substations. may require a steel support arrangement. • Construction of a replacement, higher capacity, Whilst we are still at an early stage of the project 132kV overhead line using a double trident H wood development we do not anticipate any physical pole between the existing Broadford substation and expansion of the Broadford and Edinbane substations the existing Edinbane substation; nor any new or additional equipment being installed • Installation of additional equipment and minor within the existing site boundary. The project will works on the 33kV network at the existing connect into existing infrastructure at the Broadford substation; Fort Augustus substation. Route Corridor Preferred Route Option (approximately 1km wide) Existing Route Project Timeline The chart below shows the main stages of the development process and the opportunities where members of the public can provide comments or feedback in regards to proposals. Please note that all dates are indicative at this stage. Early 2016 Initial consultation and options assessment Consultations with key statutory bodies such as Scottish National Heritage, The Highland Council, Historic Environment Scotland and Scottish Environment Protection Agency have been undertaken to seek feedback on the project and assessment methodologies. Engineering and high level environmental studies have also been carried out on the technology / corridor options. Spring 2016 Technology confirmed and route selection study started Proposed technology and overhead line corridor (wide area between connection points) identified and further environmental studies undertaken within the defined corridor. Route options identified, options appraisal undertaken and preferred route identified. September 2016 Public consultation Consultation with statutory, non-statutory bodies and communities on initial project proposals. Document detailing scope of consultation published. Autumn 2016 – Further environmental studies, initial overhead line Summer 2017 design and alignment selection progressed Review all feedback and publish the Report on Consultation.

Summer 2017 – Consultation on preferred alignment selection Late 2017 Undertake consultation on the preferred alignment for the overhead line and hold further public consultations. Late 2017 – Consent application & contract tendering Early 2019 Confirm the proposed overhead line alignment and publish the Report on Consultation. Progress Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), negotiations with landowners, preparation and submission of Section 37 consent application, contract tendering and procurement detailed design. Early 2020 – Construction and commissioning Late 2022 Technical Options Assessment Existing Infrastructure The existing 132kV overhead line which connects Fort Augustus and Skye consists of three distinct sections, which were constructed at different times over the past 65 years in response to changing needs. These include: • Fort Augustus Substation – Skye Tee – Quoich – steel lattice towers designed to carry a single circuit (three conductors) • Quoich to Broadford – steel lattice towers designed to carry two circuits, presently strung with a single circuit • Broadford to Dunvegan – trident wood pole designed to carry a single circuit Assessed Options A number of different technical solutions have been considered in the early design stages including the construction of a new connection or upgrading and using existing infrastructure. These options have been compared in order to understand the most balanced solution whilst considering technical, economic, environmental and consenting factors. The following table provides a summary of this comparison and highlights our proposed technical solution to achieve the increase in capacity between Fort Augustus and Skye.

  • Community Links & Recreational Routes Options Appraisal 2019
    EDINBANE COMMUNITY LINKS & RECREATIONAL ROUTES OPTIONS APPRAISAL 2019 for: Edinbane Community Company by Mike Hyatt Landscape Architects TEAM Mike Hyatt Landscaape Architects, Led by Mike Hyatt have carried out the survey work and liaised with the client group. He has also led on developing the proposals that are set out in this document. Arvika Consult, consultant engineers led by Frank McCulloch have assisted with survey work and with engineering solutions and costing Work has been carried out February to May 2019 INTRODUCTION This report was commissioned by Edinbane Community Company (ECC) in January 2019. The report is set out in referenece to the Client Brief, it focuses on the Community Links routes that are imported for local people SKYE to link their communities to services, places of employment and to each other. SCOPE The survey looked at identifying potential cycling walking routes from north of Flashader through Edinbane and on to Greshornish and Dunvegan. This would open up a total of 27km of new path the majority of these routes closely follow the main road the A850. The routes are set out on the Wider Path Network Map. The focus of the detailed survey work has been the 0.5km missing link from Flashader to opposite the campsite at Borve. This section links with existing paths, that if joined, would provide a safe route between the neighbouring communities of Flashader, Kildonan and Fanks to the north and Borve and Edinbane to the south. The wider network representing approximately 23km of potential routes was inspected at representative and key locations such as at junctions and sites of potential obstacles.

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 ?

The West Highland and Islands Local Development Plan (abbreviated to WestPlan) is the third of three new area local development plans that, along with the Highland-wide Local Development Plan (HwLDP) and Supplementary Guidance, forms "the development plan" that guides future development in the Highlands. WestPlan focuses on where development should and should not occur in the West Highland and Islands area over the next 20 years. In preparing this Plan, The Highland Council have held various consultations firstly with a "Call for Sites" followed by a Main Issues Report then an Additional Sites Consultation followed by a Proposed Plan. The comments submitted during these stages have helped us finalise this Plan. This is the Adopted Plan and is now part of the statutory "development plan" for this area. 1 http://highland.gov.uk/whildp Adopted WestPlan The Highland Council 1 How to Find Out More | Mar a Gheibhear Tuilleadh Fiosrachaidh What is its Status?
