Second engagement event to be held on Craigmillar housing plans

THE City of Edinburgh Council is to open a second round of engagement to gain people’s views on proposals to build new homes and commercial premises in Craigmillar.

Earmarked for a site at the south side of Niddrie Mains Road, plans would create a mixed-use development with new affordable homes above commercial premises.

The development continues the wider regeneration of the local area, which has already created over 1,250 new homes alongside the new local office, schools, shops and green spaces.

Residents can join a drop-in session to discuss the proposals at Craigmillar Library on Tuesday 21 January between 3pm and 7pm. This follows an initial event held on Tuesday 12 November, as part of the proposal of application Notice (PAN) process.
