The South and West Fife Area Committee met on Wednesday 3 September 2025. Here's a summary of the decisions.
Budget requests
Summer Programme supporting families across South and West Fife - £40,053
Families across South and West Fife have benefited from a packed programme of free summer activities thanks to a £40,053 funding award from the South and West Fife Area Committee.
The Summer Programme helped support families facing financial pressures due to the cost of living crisis. The programme offered a wide range of fun, educational and inclusive activities for children, young people and families—with free meals provided at every session.
Activities included youth clubs, sports, arts and crafts, nature walks, circus skills, cooking classes and even a residential trip for families to Lagganlia near Kingussie. Events took place in communities across the area including Rosyth, Dalgety Bay, Inverkeithing, Kincardine, Oakley and High Valleyfield.
Area Convener Councillor David Barratt said: “This funding helped more children and families enjoy a summer filled with fun, learning and connection—regardless of their financial situation.
“The programme was a brilliant example of partnership working and shows how we can come together to support our communities in meaningful ways.”
The programme was delivered by a wide range of partners including Community Learning & Development, Fife Young Carers, Active Schools, Community Use Schools, and others. The Summer Programmed aimed to reduce isolation, promote wellbeing, and create lasting memories for families across South and West Fife.
Traffic Regulation Orders
The Area Committee agreed to the following proposals:
Speed limits - C19 Kinneddar Park
Introduce a 40 mph on the C19 from the existing gateway on Oakley Road, Saline southwards past Kinneddar Park, to the gateway with Comrie.
Parking restrictions - Morlich Crescent and Morlich Road, Dalgety Bay
Concerns have been raised about vehicles parking and dropping off school children at Morlich Crescent and Morlich Road junction. To address this, it’s proposed to introduce:
- “No waiting at any time” prohibition (double yellow lines) on the corners of the junction of Morlich Road; and
- “No waiting, Monday to Friday, 8.15am-9.15am and 2.15pm – 3.15pm” (single yellow line) prohibition on the straight of Morlich Crescent to allow residents visitors to park outwith the school run times.
This is in addition to a footway realignment agreed by committee in February this year.
Parking prohibition - Dalgety Bay Primary School
St Bridget’s Brae and Inchview Gardens are residential streets within a 20mph zone and are used as drop off areas for Dalgety Bay Primary School
Complaints have been received regarding vehicles waiting around the junction. To address this, it’s proposed to introduce a “No waiting at any time” (double yellow lines).
Parking prohibition - Dunfermline Road, Limekilns
Vehicles parked on the north side of Dunfermline Road—especially around the blind bend opposite the Brucehaven Road junction—are making it difficult for drivers heading east or trying to exit Brucehaven Road to see clearly. To address this, it’s proposed to introduce a “No waiting at any time” (double yellow lines).
