Leiths New Active Travel Route: A Milestone for Safer, More Connected Spaces - The latest phase of the Leith Connections project is complete, featuring an 850-meter two-way segregated cycle track from the Foot of the Walk to Dock Street. This route connects to existing paths in Leith Walk, Portobello, and the Water of Leith, with signalized junctions, new paving, seating, planting, and sustainable drainage features. Funded by Transport Scotland and the Scottish Government, this project improves daily travel and creates enjoyable spaces. Edinburgh residents walk or wheel at least five days a week, with strong public support for shifting road funds towards active travel options. Cycling Scotland reports significant increases in bike trips at various city sites.
