Controversial plans to create a commuter park-and-ride site on green fields near a village railway station may yet go ahead despite being thrown out by the local council over safety fears.
Stirling Developments have appealed to the Scottish Government to overturn West Lothian’s rejection of their plan for a 50 space car park near Kirknewton railway station.
Stirling Developments are building the Calderwood Core Development Area in East Calder, and Kirknewton - just over two miles south - is the nearest railway station. Four attempts have already been made to produce viable park and ride plans, but all have either been rejected by councillors or failed to make it off the drawing board.
