Consultations - Give your views on active travel and on our future Local Transport Strategy | Midlothian Council Consultations allow us to work with our customers to develop our services and identify what the community wants us to focus on in the future.

Not sure if many people cycle out from Penicuik this way, but if you do, please let us know your views: https://www.midlothian.gov.uk/events/event/2747/have_your_say_on_proposed_road_improvements_at_bush_loan

It feels like Spring is coming (albeit there is bound to be snow to come), so with that in mind, what should this group be aiming to do in 2024? Open to all ideas.

Midlothian Outdoor Festival is coming up (12-16 October). Strangely, there are no cycling events. However, I am sure many of you will be interested in the programme.

We want to hear your views on proposals to resurface a section of National Cycle Network Route 196 between Rosewell and Auchendinny. What you tell us will influence the design of the resurfacing work and the materials used and also inform plans to close the path while the work takes place.
A short survey is available on the council’s consultation website, Citizen Space, until 5 September.
