Sauchiebank Gardens Mural - Option 5
Sauchiebank Gardens Mural - Option 5

Project code: 100

Project Summary

Have your say on which of these exciting mural designs is your preference. It is planned for the preferred designs to be painted in Dalry Community Park and Sauchiebank Gardens - two sections of the new Roseburn to Union Canal Link. We hope that you like the proposed designs. We think that they will add colour and vibrancy to the Link and further enhance the user experience.

Project Description

Several mural designs have been produced by local artists and it is planned that one of these designs will be painted on walls within the newly reinvigorated Dalry Community Park and one will be painted along the retaining wall up the ramp from Russell Road within the Sauchiebank Gardens section. Three designs have been produced for each area and the public are invited to select which design they prefer for each area. It is then hoped that the preferred artist will be commissioned by Edinburgh Collective and the designs painted during the Spring / Summer of 2026. 


Location: The northernmost section of the site, newly named Sauchiebank Gardens. The mural is proposed for the retaining wall that bounds the ramp that leads up from Russell Road.

Proposed on behalf of: The artistic interventions will be delivered through a collaboration of City of Edinburgh Council and Edinburgh Collective. Funding for the project has been secured from City of Edinburgh Council, Sustrans and Balfour Beatty, who acted as contractor for the overall Roseburn to Union Canal Link construction phase.
