A new high-security fence blocks the end of Bruce Street to prevent trespassers being run down by coal trains when the line from Stirling through Alloa to Kincardine and Longannet power station is re-opened later in the year. A refurbished metal footbridge continues to connect the road with the housing scheme to the north; it had fallen out of use during the twenty years or so that the railway line was disused, passing pedestrians having broken down the original wire fences to cross the rails on the level.
