There is a large amount of space in 'that corner' of platform 20 in Waverly. It would be easy to open up, and create a large storage facility on the end of that platform. They could even put it behind a fence and have a cycleway along the back of the plaform to the new walkway onto Carlton Road </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9883#post-107162 Mon, 08 Apr 2013 12:42:26 +0000 neddie 107162@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>That looks awesome!</p> <p>And yes, I do think they should reopen the Scotland St tunnel - with a 'railway station' style lift at the Princes Mall end. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9883#post-107145 Mon, 08 Apr 2013 09:57:44 +0000 kaputnik 107145@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-bristol-22051086">Bath's Two Tunnels Greenway cycle path opens</a></p> <p><em>A £4m cycle and walking path with the longest cycling tunnel in Britain has opened with a mass cycle ride.</p> <p>The Two Tunnels Greenway route opens up two former railway tunnels nearly 50 years after they closed.</p> <p>Almost 2,000 people attended the mass cycle to mark the opening of the route which runs from Bath to Midford.</p> <p>The path goes through Linear Park, on through the disused Devonshire and Combe Down railway tunnels, and over the Tucking Mill Viaduct. </p> <p>At over a mile long, the Combe Down tunnel will be the longest cycling tunnel in Britain and will feature an interactive light and sound installation</em></p> <p>Hope yet for Scotland Street! </p>
