Roseburn to Union Canal
The council are making progress with the new walking and cycle path which will link from Roseburn at Russell Road to the Union Canal. One part has an innovative elevated section which will be suspended from the side of the green bridge over Gorgie Road.
It is a huge project with large land moving equipment involved and visible from the road. Here you get a sense of where it goes and what it may look like (although it may help to look at a map as the video progresses.)
