Cockburn Response

The Cockburn Association has been consistent in its support for all aspects of the ‘Forth Bridge Experience’.

We support this LBC application as for the first time in the bridge’s history, the public will be able to access this world-famous structure, to explore its heritage and to  access outstanding, world-class views.

Suitable assessments  and safeguards must be put in place to secure the bridge’s historic fabric for future generations.

We also support the refreshed proposals are for a  a single-storey reception hub to the east of the Forth Bridges which echoes the industrial heritage of the area.  But particular care is required to ensure that the stated aim of sympathetically positioning the proposed hub in the existing landscape while minimising the impact on the surrounding environment is achieved.

Proposals for new active travel and accessible access provision require ongoing consultation with appropriate local and amenity stakeholders.
