Kirkcaldy Waterfront - time to have your say

Plans for Kirkcaldy Waterfront

One of Kirkcaldy’s greatest assets is our waterfront location and the stunning views over the Forth.

Plans to improve connections between the High Street and the waterfront include:

Locals want leisure, not parking

Fri 21 Sep, 2018

A recent survey found that improving leisure facilities on Kirkcaldy Prom was more important to local residents than creating more parking.

Kirkcaldy Prom is widely acknowledged as the town’s greatest potential asset – however, an asset that is largely unrealised.  With the plan to narrow the road to a single carriageway between the harbour and Tollbooth Street, the question remains – what should the additional space this frees up be used for? And how much of it, if any, should be given over to parking?

Have your say on reducing waste in Fife

Mon 22 Jan, 2018

Do you have any bright ideas for reducing waste in Fife?

Fife Council is currently preparing a new resources (waste) strategy, and is asking for your views on the best ways to reduce waste and repair, reuse and recycle items.

The strategy will look at waste as a resource rather than something to throw away. In addition to the environmental benefits that this could offer, the money saved on waste disposal could then be invested in local services.

Views sought on Burntisland’s proposed Post Office relocation

Fri 1 Sep, 2017

Residents are being asked for their views about a proposal to reopen Burntisland’s Post Office in a new location.

The Post Office in Burntisland closed in January following a robbery, with local residents and businesses having to travel to nearby towns to access the Post Office’s services ever since. Our conversations with local residents have revealed the inconvenience this has caused, particularly to the self-employed and those unable to drive.
