A community consultation evening is being held in Markinch for phase two of the Back Burn River Restoration project.

The project is underway to help restore sections of the watercourse to a more natural condition. This will support thriving wildlife and community wellbeing.

Phase one of the project was completed at Coul Den, Glenrothes, last year, and phase two will take place at Balbirnie Park this summer.

Project managers from Fife Coast and Countryside Trust, SEPA and cbec eco-engineering will explain the project’s background, why and where the river restoration activities will take place, and gather feedback on how the project can support community use of the Back Burn and Balbirnie Park.

This free event is on Monday, March 16 at 7pm to 8.30pm in 252 Memorial Hall, Markinch. Feel free to drop in. Book your free place: Back Burn River Restoration - Community Consultation Evening - Fife Coast & Countryside Trust
