Consultation on Active Travel launched for Inner Moray Firth Area

The Highland Council is seeking people’s view on how easy they think it is to walk, wheel and cycle in their area.

The Council is working to deliver a low carbon transport network to tackle the Climate and Ecological Emergency. For the more populated parts of the Inner Moray Firth area this means making it easier, safer and more convenient for people to walk, wheel and cycle (active travel). The first stage in this work is understanding what people think about moving around their area.

The updated Inner Moray Firth Local Development Plan will set the framework for supporting people to make healthier, low carbon travel choices. For some, this will mean supporting a transition to low carbon car travel, whilst for others active travel and public transport will provide the best options. We are seeking feedback now to build an evidence base for this ambitious new strategy. The consultation can be accessed via this link and is open until 12 July 2021.
