When <\/strong>designing and constructing the A9 the effects on tourism need to be considered. 

During the construction phase if detours or roadworks are in place how will this affect tourists visiting the area? 

What can be done to mitigate this? 

Once the road is in place, its design needs to continue to support travel connections to important tourist sites. 

If the road will cause a large increase in traffic to tourist sites then is the infrastructure surrounding the tourist attraction able to cope with this influx.

Below are links to sources of information to support teaching tourism related topics.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
