Craigmillar & Niddrie
We want to revitalise the area around Niddrie Mains Road by creating better spaces for recreation and socialising alongside safe, high-quality walking, wheeling, and cycling routes. Our plans also include improving access and amenities around Cairntows Park.
Our project is also looking at how we can provide better connections throughout Craigmillar and the surrounding areas to local schools and the Fort Kinnaird shopping centre.
Wider plans include proposals for a new primary school in Greendykes. This project brings exciting opportunities to consider ways the new school can provide extra use and community benefits for the local area. You can find more information under the related projects on this page.
