Dornoch Experimental Traffic Regulation Order 2025

11 November 2024

Shane Manning, Principal Traffic Officer, Parking Services, The Highland Council

Following discussions with representatives of the Dornoch Community the Highland Council have been asked to promote an experimental Traffic Regulation Order which will run for 18 months to assess the benefits of formalised traffic management in the centre of Dornoch and around the Beach Access Road. The advantage of delivering an experimental traffic order is we will be able to see the impacts and make adjustments within the 18 months before deciding whether or not to make the order permanent.

The exact details of these restrictions are available to download and will cover Waiting Restrictions (Single and Double yellow Lines) in specific locations where issues have been identified.

There will be formalised waiting restrictions around Dornoch Square limiting parking to a 2 hour maximum stay between 10am and 4pm from 1 May to 30 September in designated bays.

The start of these new restrictions will be advertised in due course leading to signing and lining works taking place to create the traffic management scheme.

Feel Free to share these proposals.

We welcome any questions you may have and they can be directed to the Parking team via email parking@highland.gov.uk
