Noticed some big jumps near me on Grove Street and Gilmore Place.<br />  <br /> Bemusingly, they’re also proposing to increase parking on streets that have planned cycle routes (which will reduce parking) - sounds like a sure fire way to get people annoyed. e.g. they’re significantly increasing parking on the north side of St Andrew Square that will be removed by CCWEL.</p> <p>If anything, some of the parking increases would be handy to ‘hold back’ per say and deliver them with an Active Travel scheme to make it more appealing to NIMBYs. </p> <p>Maps &amp; details: <a href="https://www.pclconsult.co.uk/edinburghparking/" rel="nofollow">https://www.pclconsult.co.uk/edinburghparking/</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14834#post-188790 Tue, 19 May 2015 09:06:18 +0000 robyvecchio 188790@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>It's the parking! Those 2+ cars per family needs space. Also Netflix series aren't going to be watched themselves.</p> <p><a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-32780242" rel="nofollow">http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-32780242</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11402#post-129143 Sun, 20 Oct 2013 06:19:31 +0000 cc 129143@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I'm going to a conference! Where's a good place near the conference centre to lock up my bike? Any recommendations? </p> <p>I went there yesterday and found four wee rack-ettes out the front of the building; a couple of lamposts across the road; some cyclist-crusher barrier fencing just down the hill; and a bit further away there's <a href="http://opencyclemap.org/?zoom=18&amp;lat=55.94603&amp;lon=-3.20902&amp;layers=B000">Festival Square</a> but there doesn't seem to be anywhere more secure or reassuring. </p> <p>The <a href="http://www.eicc.co.uk/">EICC</a> and <a href="http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/linuxcon-europe">conference</a> sites are no help sadly ("For further advice on alternative modes of transport <a href="http://www.sestran.gov.uk" rel="nofollow">http://www.sestran.gov.uk</a>"). </p> <p>Any more ideas please? Or is that the lot? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=220#post-1624 Fri, 15 Jan 2010 17:05:43 +0000 greenerleith 1624@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>We're pleased to announce we've managed to get some extra funding to expand cycling parking facilities in Leith - should be installed by the end of the financial year. </p> <p>More info here:</p> <p><a href="http://www.greenerleith.org/greener-leith-news/2010/1/15/more-safe-cycle-parking-coming-to-leith.html">http://www.greenerleith.org/greener-leith-news/2010/1/15/more-safe-cycle-parking-coming-to-leith.html</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10148#post-110094 Fri, 10 May 2013 12:28:18 +0000 Greenroofer 110094@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>EEN article:<a href="http://www.scotsman.com/edinburgh-evening-news/transport/bad-edinburgh-parking-shamed-on-website-1-2925675">Bad Edinburgh parking shamed on website</a></p> <p>It's mainly interesting because it continually refers to 'road users, pedestrians and cyclists' as if somehow cyclists aren't road users.</p> <p>DON'T READ THE COMMENTS! The first one manages to complain about cycling on the pavement in an article that's about people <em>parking</em> in stupid places. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=4841#post-51309 Tue, 27 Dec 2011 18:01:40 +0000 Min 51309@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-16337908">Lack of Traffic Wardens causes Traffic Chaos Shocka.</a></p> <p>Its an audio thing but basically there are no traffic wardens in Aberystwyth at the moment.
