The Project Team speak with the Musselburgh Conservation Society about the Scheme

Friday 14th April 2023 

Project Manager, Conor Price, delivered an update on the Scheme to the Musselburgh Conservation Society at St Peters Kirk.

The update, which took place on Thursday 13th April 2023, addressed:

  • An update on the Scheme’s progress;
  • A summary of the river levels exceeding the engineered channel as a result of the Spring High Tides;
  • The inclusion of Natural Flood Management (NFM), Nature-based Solutions (NBS) and River Restoration within the Scheme; and
  • The unveiling of the Outline Design to the town at the Public Exhibition No.2 in June this year.

The Project Team were delighted with the turn out yesterday evening and the discussion which took place.
