Wester Ross Local Plan On-Line

The Council has also launched an interactive version of the Local Plan which can be accessed here. This version of the Plan allows you to find out what the Local Plan says about any location in Wester Ross at the touch of a button.

It will show you a map of the area you are interested in, as well as all the Local Plan policies that apply. The Council would be interested to receive feedback on the usefulness of this version of the Plan, and the e-mail address is wester.ross@highland.gov.uk.”

The plan follows on from the production of a comprehensive set of topic papers which was published earlier last year. View the Plan Online Here
