This document contains a recommendation for the Cairngorms National Park Authority (Park Authority) to withdraw its objection to Transport Scotland's A9 dualling proposals from Killiecrankie to Glen Garry. The Park Authority initially objected due to insufficient information on potential impacts to the Killiecrankie Battlefield site. Following additional archaeological investigations and scheme alterations, Historic Environment Scotland (HES) withdrew its objection to significant elements of the scheme, but retained an objection to a small area of proposed woodland planting. Park Authority officers are satisfied that the revised proposals minimize impacts on the battlefield and landscape, and that the remaining HES objection does not merit the Park Authority's objection.
