Raeburn Place Foundation: Paving the way for change

Update 
We would like to share with you the improvements RPF is making to the local area. The enabling works have been underway for eight weeks. During that time, and as part of RPF’s investment in this project and the area, significant progress has been made to improve the local environment for residents and visitors alike.
Tree Protection
Careful breaking out of the existing pavement is taking place in order to safeguard and enhance the health of the trees, and at the same time install a new footway which caters for the future growth of these trees.

Portgower Place:  
  • The wall is being repaired where necessary
  • Creation of new openings in the wall for the car park in the new development
  • Pavements are being resurfaced
Comely Bank Road: 
  • Site levels on the playing field side have now been brought up to match the levels on Comely Bank Road
  • A temporary footway has been created on Comely Bank Road.
