The Process and Timetable

Runners on the Riverside of the DonOver the last few years a great deal of work has taken place in gathering information and views on current access opportunities. This initial information was used in order to develop a Consultative Draft Core Paths Plan which put forward a network of candidate core paths. The Consultative Draft Core Paths Plan was subject to an informal consultation between December 2007 and February 2008. Opinions gathered during the consultation were used to build upon the Consultative Draft in order to prepare a Final Draft Core Paths Plan.

The Final Draft Core Paths Plan was subject to a formal consultation between August 2008 and October 2008. We are currently considering comments received during the consultation and working towards resolving the objections.

The table below provides a summary of the various stages used to develop the Final Draft Core Paths Plan.

2003 – 2006: Information Gathering
December 2007 – February 2008: Consultation on Consultative Draft Core Paths Plan (Initial Suggestions)
Mid 2008: Formal Consultation on Finalised Draft Core Paths Plan

Late 2008/Early2009: Adoption Process (including possible Public Enquiry)

Equality and Human Rights Impact Assessment of the Aberdeen Core Paths Plan

In order to ensure that the Core Paths Plan does not discriminate against any user group (ethnic minorities, gender, the elderly etc) and to maximise opportunities to promote equality and human rights, an Equality and Human Rights Impact Assessment was carried out.  To view the Equality and Human Rights Impact Assessment please follow the link below:
