Green group makes cash plea for travel vision

Greener Leith has called on politicians to apply for money from the Scottish Government in an attempt to make Edinburgh a "travel demonstration town". The group said the money could be used to upgrade Leith Links or to improve a cycle path between Leith and Portobello.
A spokesman said: "The money could also support a host of other activities from 'green travel maps' to improving walkways and green spaces.
