ment,

Background

The Council is proposing a new

walking and cycling route linking

Roseburn to the Union Canal via a series of bridges over the existing railw

ay lines and Dalry

Road as well as a crossing on

West Approach Road.

This will fill in a key m

issing link betw

een the existing off road netw

orks including the North

Edinburgh path network via

Roseburn Path (NCN1) and the

Union Canal (NCN75).

Also planned is an off road link along the north side of the W

est Approach Road as far asM

orrison Crescent, allowing

safer and more convenient

access to the Morrison Street

area avoiding the Haym

arket junction.
