Item 5 Appendix1a Plans SlugainBurnRestoration 20260160DET

This document contains plans for the Slugain Burn Restoration project, located near Dalnahaitnach and the River Dulnain, submitted under planning application 2026/0160/DET and dated 09 October 2026. The project involves creating a new, realigned channel for the Slugain Burn, incorporating step-pool features and large woody material to encourage natural river processes. Alongside this, parts of the original burn channel and an existing road will be removed and filled in, making way for a new 3.3 meter wide highway realignment that includes a box culvert. The plans also detail native tree planting, the diversion of a BT telecommunications cable, and improvements to an informal parking area.
