Road Rage In Roslin Valley

For over a year the Non Alignment Action Group (NAAG) have been opposing plans by Midlothian Council to have a L20 million, privately financed road built through Roslin Valley, South of Edinburgh. The planned road would damage an SSSI and effectively destroy a part of Edinburgh's greenbelt.

While the Council has been reluctant to start a public enquiry, campaigners are keeping the pressure on with monthly walks of the planned route. The next such walk is planned for the 4th of April.

Contact 01968 675109 to participate in the route walks. General contact: NAAG 0131 448 2713
