Proposed Trunk Link Road - [highland.gov.uk]
Page 5/14 - Scottish Transport Appraisal Guidance (STAG) Recommendations
Note the line of the proposed road.
It curves threough Ness-side,
crosses the river at an angle landing at the tip of Canal Park,
crosses the canal at a slight angle, crosses the the East end of the Torvean esker ridge,
to join athe A82 at the junction with General Booth Road.
Comment
SNH did not have a problem with this proposed route as it avoided the esker ridge.
The esker ridge is clearly missing in the area of the Torvean quarry bowl.
It is difficult to see how SNH might raise an objection to a route through the quarry bowl.
