The Highland Council have been undertaking an Options Appraisal on eight options for constructing a new section of road between the Dores Roundabout and the A82 Trunk Road. Following the public consultation in December 2010, through to February 2011, the number of options being considered was increased from five to eight. A series of public meetings and exhibitions were held in the city at various locations during November and December 2011 as part of this second public consultation. The residents of Inverness were invited to attend these events and pass on their comments on all aspects of the West Link.
