News on Academy Street Proposals

The Highland Council is developing a design to regenerate Academy Street, an important place in the heart of Inverness. The City of Inverness Area Committee agreed on 24th November 2022 to progress design of the street to the next, more detailed stage, based on the principle of reducing the current volumes of through-traffic. This approach promotes an ambitious vision for the city centre, and is direct action that will help address poor air quality in the immediate area and to the Climate and Ecological Emergency, it will also provide the city the best opportunity to attract funding for transformational change. Officers are developing designs and will undertake further engagement and statutory consultation early in 2023.
