Council Consultations in Islay

News Release: 21 February 2007

Argyll and Bute Council will carry out consultations in Islay next month to seek people’s views about outdoor access and transport issues. The consultation on outdoor access will help to identify a core path plan for the area which will detail those paths that meet the outdoor access needs of both local people and visitors and help to integrate access with land management and other land uses.

The draft of the new Local Transport Strategy will outline the Council’s policies, plans and projects for transport in the area over the next three years. The consultations will take place in Bowmore Village Hall, Islay, on Tuesday 6th March from 11.30am until 7.30pm. The event is open for people to drop-in and discuss their views with the project teams.

Further information on both consultations can be found on the Council’s website
