New Inshes District Park, Inverness

Work has begun this week on the first new public park to be built in Inverness for a generation.

Inshes District Park will cover a significant area of South Inverness. 29 hectares (72 acres) in total will be developed in three phases - more here

This news made the BBC news night time bulletin and there is a slightly different take on the BBC web site

Earlier this year, a campaign began to protect one of Inverness's largest existing parks - WhinPark - from the construction of a planned new road.

The West Link aims to take traffic from the city's Southern Distributor Road to the A82, avoiding the city centre.

Several possible routes are being considered and Highland Council has been looking at responses to public consultation on the options.

Some residents started a campaign to prevent the new road crossing Whin Park.
