This is a really good alternative now the crossing's in place (felt like running the gauntlet before). Shows how small changes can have a big impact.

The section around London Road is slightly convoluted, but, otherwise, it’s a pleasant ride and avoids mixing with traffic on all but the quietest of streets.

And here's the route – it connects lots of green spaces and is ideal for children and less confident cyclists.

We're huge fans of Skelf! And always surprised by how many people haven't gone along for a shot - it's only a 30 min, almost traffic-free cycle from Leith Links 🚲

It’s easy to get to by bus or bike, and just a short walk from recently relocated The Pitt, Silverknowes Promenade and Granton Castle Walled Garden. Another good example of what can happen when derelict spaces are reimagined for people – and well worth a visit. grantonwaterfront.com
