PICTURES: First look at Highland Council’s new plans for Academy Street in Inverness
Highland Council hosted an Academy Street regeneration project event at the Town House this morning showing stakeholders what they could expect to see if the plans are eventually approved.
Vehicle access will be maintained but reduced by making it unappealing to use Academy Street as a through road but all businesses should still be accessible to motorists.
Let us know what you think of these plans that will see traffic from Millburn Road diverted via Union Street into Queensgate and out Strothers Lane while vehicles approaching from Chapel Street will turn left at Strothers Lane.
Drivers coming into the city via Chapel Street and Church Street will not be able to access Queensgate but will instead turn left onto Post Office Avenue and then left onto Academy Street – unless they are delivering.
