NTBCC makes deputation on pavement widths to Council
At last Thursday’s Transport and Environment Committee meeting, we made a verbal deputation highlighting problems with the loss of pavement space as a result of the issue of tables and chairs permits and siting of other infrastructure on pavements. We included a number of photographs of current examples from across our area to illustrate our concerns.
We noted that the Council is not consistently following its own guidance contained in the Edinburgh Street Design Guidance and raised concerns about response provided in the Business Bulletin to questions raised by Councillors last September. As a result of the deputations from NTBCC and Living Streets Edinburgh, the Councillors approved a motion to seek a full report on this issue early next year. We are hopeful that this report will provide greater clarity on the rules that should apply especially in busy pedestrian areas.
If you are interested in learning more about this topic you may want to watch the webcast of the Transport and Environment committee meeting. If you see other examples of pavements being restricted, please do forward them to us using X (Twitter) or the contact form.
