Skye electricity reinforcement

Fort Augustus–Skye network reinforcement, anchored at the identifiable Broadford substation campus. June 2025 consent selects the preferred Kylerhea alignment and includes underground sections, but the full final alignment/revision match is not yet verified; no approximate route is drawn.[1]

Current position

Workforce accommodation at Kiltaraglen remains a proposal; no completed homes or accommodation capacity is claimed.

Benefits

  • The selected scope and location: Published Broadford substation upgrade is an identifiable programme anchor. Retained from former B6 as a point project; final alignment variants around Kylerhea were not resolved for a full route.
