Work to complete the re-opening of the Leven branch line will see the parapets of a bridge raised, according to a new planning submission. Network Rail has submitted a prior approval notice to Fife Council to carry out the work at Elmpark Sawmill, Leven. Its focus is a metal bridge over the railway which is also a designated core path [The Sawmill Bridge]. In a planning statement, Network Rail said: The existing parapets comprise metal girders. The parapets are approximately 1.4 metres high and as such are non-compliant with electrification standards.
