Councillor Jim Montgomerie with the Ayrshire Shoreline Management Plan and the northern hills of Arran in the background.
A masterplan to protect Arran’s shoreline – as part of a larger Ayrshire Shoreli ne Management Plan – has been approved by North Ayrshire Council’s cabinet.
The plan, developed in partnership with North Ayrshire and South Ayrshire councils, offers a largescale assessment of the risks to the people of Arran and Ayrshire, and its historic and natural environment, from coastal flooding and erosion, and identifies suitable policies for the management of these risks.
