This document contains a planning application submitted by Mr. Peter Moore to the Cairngorms National Park Authority (Park Authority) for the formation of a track on land near Insh, Kingussie. The application, referenced as 2021/0064/DET, was called in on 1 March 2021, and the recommendation is to approve it subject to conditions. The proposal involves upgrading a 470m section of existing grassed track to a constructed vehicle track within the Insh Marshes National Nature Reserve. The Park Authority's Ecology Advisor and Landscape Officer support the proposal, noting that it aligns with local plan policies regarding natural heritage and landscape, provided certain mitigation measures, such as pre-construction checks for otter holts and adherence to a Construction Method Statement, are followed. The track aims to improve access for seasonal grazing and management of the nature reserve.
