General Directions Consultation

To help improve safety, sustainability, and efficiency across our harbours, Orkney Islands Council is proposing new General Directions. The primary aim of the General Directions is to enhance navigational safety, environmental stewardship, andoperational efficiency across Orkney’s diverse maritime environment.

We encourage your input as it will help us shape a maritime environment which is beneficial for everyone, from large commercial vessels to individual water sports users.
