Scottish Scenic Routes Initiative

The Scottish Scenic Routes Initiative is about creating art/architecture installations along scenic routes (not necessarily roads). Cairngorms National Park has been promoting its installations as being part of the Snow Roads Scenic Route. Others are looking to do the same, though haven't reached that stage of the marketing process yet.
The pilot stage ran from mid-2013 to March 2016.
