Other walkway news - tree works Balerno to Colinton, Bonnington closure extended again and bridge closed at Kates Mill

Over the coming weeks Contractors will be on site along the walkway pruning and thinning some of the trees along side the walkway from Balerno to Slateford to open up the canopy, improve sight lines and encourage some more light and diversity into sections. This is being done before the nesting season starts.

Bad news at Bonnington looks like there are further delays and more stabilisation works required so this section is unlikely to open until March.

There is a small closure of a bridge in the Dells near Kate Mill - this does not affect the main walkway routes but will limit some of the circular routes in the Dells.
