About our proposals and engagement
Queensferry’s population has seen significant growth in recent years and is predicted to grow further by 2030.
We have a number of buildings and facilities in the local area, with many reaching the end of their usable life and no longer fit for purpose.
Previous engagement has told us that people would like services and facilities in a more central and accessible location.
Our vision
We listened to what people have said and are proposing a new community hub on Burgess Road: the new Queensferry Community Campus.
A community hub is a building that is open and accessible to the local community, providing services that the local community wants and needs.
Our initial plans for the new campus have been designed using the findings of past consultations and reports and focus on
- a new Early Learning and Childcare Centre on the north end of Burgess Park, providing children with better quality outdoor space and a modern environment for learning and development
- enhancing greenspace and extending Burgess Park by removing the Road Depot on adjacent land
- providing additional classrooms at Queensferry Primary School by moving the Early Years facility to a new building and repurposing space within the school
- expanding playground space at Queensferry Primary School, replacing existing buildings in poor condition
- moving an improved and larger Queensferry library to the campus, with more community spaces, provision to deliver partner services and increase opening hours.
Consultation and engagement opportunities
We ran our 12-week survey on the initial proposals between 27 January and 21 April 2025. During this consultation period we held public drop-in events at Queensferry Library, Scotmid Co-Op and Tesco South Queensferry, where officers were available to discuss plans and listen to people’s views. We also held a series of workshops with stakeholder groups throughout the consultation period. We are reviewing the results of this engagement programme and will publish a summary report in due course.
We will use the feedback from the survey, events and workshops as the project progresses and we develop more detailed plans.
We will continue to involve the community at each stage of the project’s development. Details of further engagement opportunities will be published on this page in the future.
