  • 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.

  • Appropriate Assessment of the Policies and Proposals Has Been Undertaken, Under the Provisions of Article 6(3) and (4) of the Habitats Directive 1992**
    West Highland & Islands Local Plan: Habitats Regulations Appraisal Finalised Version Habitats Regulations Appraisal (including Appropriate Assessment) of the West Highland & Islands Local Plan Finalised Version (September 2010) 1 West Highland & Islands Local Plan: Habitats Regulations Appraisal Finalised Version Foreword This document has been prepared under the requirements of the EU Habitats Directive and has applied the requirements set out by Scottish Government Policy. It is the Highland Council’s responsibility to consider whether the policies and proposals within the West Highland & Islands Local Plan are likely to have any significant effect on Special Protection Areas (including proposed SPAs), Special Areas of Conservation (including proposed SACs) and Ramsar sites, having regard to the qualifying interests and conservation objectives of those sites. Where a likely significant effect has been identified, appropriate assessment has been undertaken in order to try to ascertain whether the policies and proposals will adversely affect the integrity of the sites protected by the EU Directive and Scottish Government Policy (“the sites”). Mitigation measures have been provided where necessary in order to avoid adversely affecting the integrity of the sites. This has involved making changes to the Plan where necessary. The Council now believes that the Plan’s policies and proposals will not adversely affect the integrity of the sites. We have successfully concluded with certainty that that is the case. During the preparation of this document and the consideration of relevant representations on the Local Plan the Highland Council had discussions with and input from Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) and the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) in particular which helped identify and address any potential shortcomings.

  • Kinlochhourne -Knoydart – Morar Wild Land Area
    Description of Wild Land Area – 2017 18 Kinlochhourne -Knoydart – Morar Wild Land Area 1 Description of Wild Land Area – 2017 Context This very large area, extending 1065 km2 across Lochalsh and Lochaber, is the fourth most extensive WLA and only narrowly separated from the second largest, Central Highlands (WLA 24). It runs from Glen Shiel in the north and includes a large proportion of the Knoydart peninsula and the hills between Lochs Quoich, Arkaig and Eil and Eilt, and around the eastern part of Loch Morar. Major routes flank its far northern and southern edges, the latter to nearby Fort William, but it is otherwise distant from large population centres. It is one of only three mainland WLAs to be defined in part by the coast, on its western edge. The area contains in the north and west high, angular and rocky mountains with sweeping slopes towering over a series of steep sided glens and lochs, which extend into a more jumbled mass of rugged mountains within the central interior, with linear ranges of simpler massive hills in the east. These are formed of hard metamorphic rock that was carved during glaciation, creating features such as pyramidal peaks, corries, U-shaped glens, moraine and the remarkable fjords of Lochs Hourn and Nevis. Later erosion is also evident with the presence of burns, gorges, waterfalls and alluvial deposits. The distinctive landform features are highlighted against the open space and horizontal emphasis of adjacent sea and lochs. The WLA is largely uninhabited, apart from a few isolated crofts and estate settlements around the coast and loch shores.
