Improving the area around the King's Theatre

We're working with the King’s Theatre Refurbishment project and other stakeholders to develop improvements to the public space around the theatre.

This part of the project will

  • help deliver the Theatre’s aim to create step free access (from street to seat) through the main entrance for all patrons and visitors 
  • deliver our plans for improving the public spaces around the Theatre
  • increase pavement areas by over 100 square metres
  • make the exemption for cycling westbound on Valleyfield Street permanent
  • alter the Greenways restrictions on Leven Street, from Tarvit Street to Glengyle Terrace, to suit the new road layout and provide a small increase in the overall Greenways loading bays.

We will soon advertise the Traffic Orders that are needed so we can deliver these proposals. You will be able to view and comment on these once they are published. We will continue to work with stakeholders, residents and local businesses to deliver these improvements before the King's Theatre's re-opens in 2026, and will do all we can to keep disruption to a minimum.
