Work on coastal path soon to be completed

The Courier, 6 September 2002

Work to upgrade the coastal path between Crail and the Tay Bridge should be completed by the end of October, Scottish Enterprise Fife has revealed.

The position has been given by Scottish Enterprise Fife which, since January 2000, has been carrying out footpath works on this section at a cost of more than £100,000.

In a letter to the Kingdom of Fife Tourist Board, Scottish Enterprise Fife revealed that the Crail - Kilminning, Kilminning - Kingsbarns and Kingsbarns - Boarhills sections were now complete.

The final sections between Boarhills and St Andrews as well as Leuchars and Kinshaldy were subject to outstanding works. But recent discussions with Scottish Natural Heritage and Fife Council to resolve issues associated with these sections had resulted in successful resolution of the routes.
