Getting around Braemar Village Centre

The online survey is now closed. View the feedback and next steps here. Project updates will be posted on this page.

Aberdeenshire Council and Cairngorm National Park Authority (CNPA) are working together to make Braemar Village Centre more walking, cycling and wheelchair accessible. This is part of a wider project where the long-term vision is to make it easy and safe for residents and visitors to get around in the communities of the National Park without a vehicle through improving infrastructure and public spaces.

CNPA, funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund and Sustrans Places for Everyone, have developed a set of proposals to concept design stage for Braemar following a village wide audit of active travel provision in 2022. This work has included technical audits and the consideration of ideas and comments from many local residents and stakeholders. Aberdeenshire Council have contributed to the project designs which you can view under the documents panel. Residents and visitors provided their feedback and suggestions for how best to support walking and cycling in and around Braemar via an online survey and drop-in community event in May 2024. We are now reviewing this feedback.
