Oban residents invited to help shape future transport improvements
New survey seeks local views on walking, cycling, public transport and road travel in and around Oban.
People who live, work and spend time in Oban are being encouraged to share their experiences of travelling around the town as part of a new consultation exploring opportunities to improve sustainable transport and connectivity.
Residents, businesses and visitors are being asked for their views on walking, wheeling, cycling and public transport in and around Oban as part of a consultation led by Argyll and Bute Council. The project is supported by funding from Transport Scotland‘s Active Travel Infrastructure Fund and aims to better understand local travel experiences and priorities.
The consultation will gather feedback on how people travel between homes, schools, workplaces, shops and services, and explore where connections, accessibility and sustainable transport options could be improved. The findings will help build a clearer picture of local transport needs and identify opportunities that could inform future plans and funding applications.
At this stage, the project is focused on listening to local people. Any future development of a Sustainable Transport Masterplan, or projects arising from it, would be subject to further funding becoming available.
As part of the engagement programme, a public exhibition will take place at the Rockfield Centre in Oban on 19 November, from 10am to 7pm, offering an opportunity to speak directly with the project team and share ideas for improving local travel. The consultation is being delivered by the council with support from Connected Transport Planning Ltd and Adventure Oban.
People can share their views online until 31 December 2026 through the consultation’s virtual platform.
