Construction News Image
The Highland Council will host a public consultation event to outline the progress made on the Riverside Way works in Inverness.

This ambitious project aims to improve active travel provision along the popular route of Ness Walk and Bught Road for those walking, wheeling, and cycling.

The session, which is open to anyone to attend, will be held in the Conference Room at the Highland Rugby Club premises, Canal Park from 7pm to 9pm.

City Leader Cllr Ian Brown said: "This is a great opportunity for people to come along and find out how progress is going and get any questions they have answered by the project team. The works will transform this popular area of the city and make it more attractive and safer for residents and visitors, especially anyone cycling or walking.

"Every effort is being made to keep disruption to a minimum during the works, but if anyone has any particular concerns, they are welcome to come and speak to the team."

The meeting will be chaired by the Council's Site Representative and Senior Engineer, Graeme Campbell who will be joined by representatives from the contractor, Wills Bros.

An update on progress will be given followed by an opportunity for the public to field question and raise any concerns.

Work on site started on 30 October and is expected to run until the start of April.

Improvements underway, funded through SUSTRANS Places for Everyone programme, include the widening of footpaths, a segregated cycle contraflow lane, formalised parking arrangements, and changes to junction layouts.
