Paper 4 Update and forward look

This document contains an update on the Cairngorms Local Outdoor Access Forum's work. A Speyside Way surface upgrade is in progress, and a new section of path near Kincraig is now complete. The recreation and access team has also been inspecting core paths to assess the network and address storm damage. Planning permission has been granted for the middle section of the Braemar to Keiloch Path, and community path leaflets are being updated. The National Access Forum discussed wildlife disturbance and campfire messaging. A "dog friendly Cairngorms" project is being developed, and the Cairngorms National Park Authority has been awarded £10.7 million to deliver Cairngorms 2030, a programme with 20 long-term projects focused on nature restoration, sustainable transport, community development, and health, with the goal of making the Cairngorms the UK's first net zero national park.
