Planning applications approved for East Lothian new town

Three separate planning applications have been approved, paving the way for the creation of one of Scotland’s newest towns.

East Lothian Council's planning committee gave the green light to Blindwells, where 1,600 new homes are set to be constructed together with the infrastructure, employment, town centre and educational amenities.

Hargreaves Land, which is behind the housing scheme, will now begin work on the road and footpath network that will serve the future Blindwells Primary School, large areas of open space at Princes Loch and a central area of green space at Princes Park.
