Leith Walk

The welcome construction activity at the Shrubhill gapsite involves use of the former up platform for purposes for which it was never envisaged! Sadly the Powderhall refuse plant is to close next year and the branch with it. The council already has its eye on it for a cycleway. I understand though that NR will still have an option on the Abbeyhill loop trackbed so the junction at Piershill may not be dismantled.
