Edinburgh's New Streets: Safer, Greener, and More Connected

Edinburgh's New Streets: Safer, Greener, and More Connected

Published 2 weeks, 2 days ago
Description

Edinburghs City Council is revamping streets in Craigmillar and Niddrie, prioritizing safer travel for bikes, buses, and pedestrians. Key upgrades include protected cycle lanes, bus priority spots, and improved pedestrian crossings along Peffermill Road, Niddrie Mains Road, and Newcraighall Road. The project aims to enhance accessibility to shops, schools, and parks. The council is removing some parking to accommodate new paths, adding loading bays, and enhancing public spaces with trees, seating, and play areas. Theyre also implementing traffic calming measures like continuous pavements and raised tables. The council is seeking public input through an online survey and drop-in events until July eighth. Your feedback can help shape these permanent changes, making streets more functional for the community.
