Safer and easier travel around Boat of Garten for all
Safer and easier travel around Boat of Garten for all
We want to make it easier and more enjoyable to travel around Boat of Garten - whether heading to the school, village centre, pump track or local paths, supporting everyone in the community to get to where they need, safely.
Come and tell us what you think about draft designs for new crossings, pavement improvements and better signage at our drop-in event on Thursday 15 January, 1 - 6pm, at the Boat of Garten Community Hall. Everyone is welcome to view the visualisations, meet the project team and share their ideas.
In 2023 we worked with you to develop ideas for travel in and around Boat of Garten, we have since built upon your thoughts and have new detailed design proposals for you to feedback on. The project team and consultants Mott MacDonald, with funding from Transport Scotland, are looking forward to gathering community perspectives before moving towards the construction phase.
Can’t make the drop-in? Feedback can also be shared online through a short survey: https://cairngorms.co.uk/taking-part/consultations/active-communities-consultation
This project is part of the Cairngorms 2030 programme, supported by The National Lottery Heritage Fund.
