Levelling Up Fund Active Travel & Town Centre Access Control Proposals

Moray Council is inviting the public and local businesses to share their views on proposed traffic changes in Elgin town centre. These changes aim to support upcoming projects funded by the £18.3 million Levelling Up Fund investment, which includes improvements for walking, cycling and public spaces.

A public information event was held in the town centre on 12 July 2025, covering a range of Levelling Up Fund and other local projects. This included information on the proposed changes and an opportunity to provide feedback. There will be a further consultation event focussing on the active travel proposals on Wednesday 30th July between 3pm and 7pm at the Williamson Hall on Duff Avenue. If approved, the work could start in Spring 2026 and be completed by 2027.
