About the Active Freeway

East Lothian Council has the opportunity to re-purpose the A199 into a corridor for local traffic alongside a high-quality, shared-use path for walking, wheeling and cycling. This will link Dunbar through East Linton, Haddington and Tranent to Musselburgh and onto Edinburgh, and has the potential to be an efficient cycle commuter route and to provide crucial local connections. The project is proposed to be constructed in stages, as funding opportunities become available. The section at East Linton is the first stage of the project to be constructed, the project was funded by the Scottish Government and designed and delivered through a partnership between East Lothian Council and Sustrans.
