The Falkirk area is situated right at the heart of central Scotland. It is one of the best connected areas in Scotland - mid way between Edinburgh and Glasgow, just 20 minutes drive from Edinburgh airport and with excellent road and rail links for both day visits and longer stays. The area is home to The Falkirk Wheel, the world's first rotating boatlift and the spectacular centrepiece of the £84.5 million 'Millenium Link', the UK's largest canal restoration project to reconnect the Union Canal with the Forth & Clyde Canal, re-establishing east to west coast transit for boats. |
Within the historic town of Falkirk is the area's thriving retail centre, with shopping malls, street markets, monthly Farmers' Markets with over 30 stalls and the country's longest fully pedestrianised high street. |
My Future’s in Falkirk is an innovative 10 year economic development initiative which is transforming the Falkirk area into a diverse and modern economy and a desirable place to work, live and visit. For information on all projects and partners visit www.myfuturesinfalkirk.co.uk. |
