SIGNS highlighting routes taken by people at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic have been approved.

The art project was created to “make a space in the community for reflection, remembrance, hope and healing”.

East Lothian Council considered six separate applications, with signs placed to highlight the routes in Musselburgh, Tranent, Port Seton, Haddington, North Berwick and Spott.

No objections were lodged against the proposals, which were submitted by Remembering Together East Lothian.

Each of the routes were also featured during Walkfest, which came to a close on Sunday.

The Tranent route, which measures six kilometres, is described as “a walk for reflection, hope and healing through urban areas, fields and parkland”.

Meanwhile, on the coast, a 4km route starts at Port Seton’s Wave Garden and continues into neighbouring Prestonpans.

In Musselburgh, the circular walk takes in the Levenhall Links, while there is a 2.5km circular route taking in an area north of Spott.

Haddington’s route covers much of the town alongside the River Tyne, while North Berwick’s coastal path offers “stunning views, skirting the Glen golf course”.
