T in the Park accused of Strathallan planning breaches
ByJamie Buchan
T in the Park bosses are facing enforcement action over alleged breaches of planning rules, The Courier can reveal.
Perth and Kinross Council has accused DF Concerts of failing to comply with a catalogue of regulations.
The conditions were set down by the local authority when planning permission was granted for the festival’s move to Strathallan Castle earlier this year.
Now event organisers face penalties of up to £6,000 unless they comply with demands ahead of next summer’s show.
Among the conditions, DF Concerts will have to submit a fresh transport management plan after criticism over traffic chaos during July’s event.
The company will also have to give assurances it will stick to agreed working hours when preparing the site and ensure all sensitive areas and watercourses are protected by buffer zones.
