Work is ongoing to restore a historic C listed wall dating back to the 1800s within scenic Almondell & Calderwood Country Park.

West Lothian Council is aware that the developer prompting the site east of Calderwood and within the Edinburgh green belt has issued material to support their case for the Calderwood site to be included within Edinburgh's forthcoming Local Development Plan. The council has already formally objected development proposals for the Calderwood area as part of the Edinburgh City Local Development Plan.

West Lothian residents whose bins are normally collected on Fridays or Saturdays are being urged to check for changes over the Festive period.

Additional help has been put in place to ensure West Lothian families can feed their families over the Festive period.

Councillor Lawrence Fitzpatrick, Leader of West Lothian Council said:

Pedestrians walking along the Murieston Trail are advised of upcoming works to install a replacement footbridge which will lead to diversions in the area.
