Driven forward by a partnership including Falkirk Council, British Waterways and Central Scotland Forest Trust, The HELIX will see the creation of 300 hectares of new greenspace and woodland with 750,000 new trees planted, a new canal link which will open up the Forth Estuary, an inspired public art programme and 34km of paths and cycleways.

The new canal link will also connect Grangemouth with a new marina and new water bas ed activities develop ed around it. The new section of canal and towpath will provide a massive improvement to navigation and offer a new gateway to Scotland 's inland waterways. A spectacular new boatlift will add to the area's reputation as the place to see such engineering expertise.
