Edinburgh's new 'boulevard' on Lothian Road among big projects to get funding

Edinburgh council projects aimed at transforming streets across the capital to make walking and cycling easier have been given a major cash boost.

More than £3 million is set to be given to schemes including the creation of a boulevard on Lothian Road, measures to reduce traffic in the Old Town and the further development of '20-minute neighbourhoods' throughout the city.

The money, from active travel charity Sustrans, will go towards strategic planning, designs and other pre-construction costs.
