Plans lodged for final phase of Inverness Campus

Highlands and Islands Enterprise (HIE) has submitted plans for a hotel and academic space as part of the final phase of development at Inverness Campus.

The 215 acre (87ha) purpose-built campus opened in 2015, and is home to 16 businesses as well as organisations like UHI and the NHS.

Commercial properties make up the majority of HIE's proposals for the next stage of the project.

Under the plans, serviced plots would be created for sale to developers, with 27 acres (11ha) forming part of the new Inverness and Cromarty Green Freeport.
