Our maintenance team has been repairing the upper section of the Glenvale path in the Lomond Hills Regional Park. This is one of the most remote and rugged parts of the hills and is one of our most difficult sites to access. The path had been gullied out by rain water so needed regraded and repaired.
Vegetation was removed at the edge of the path to encourage rain water to run off the path and not down the surface of the path. The team was able to get access through fields to take an excavator on site, and also used hand tools to dig and rake.
Our before and after pictures show the transformation. You can see that in many sections the path has been restored to its original width.

Every Fife primary school is getting 10 birdboxes to help inspire children about nature and the environment. STV News was at Kirkcaldy North Primary School today, to film Tom Rawson from GreenTweed Eco delivering the boxes. Watch the teatime bulletin on Monday to find out what the youngsters think of the scheme. And read our news story:
