The site would make a nice access route. Perhaps some affordable (car free) housing on the rest of the site.</p> <p><a href="https://flic.kr/p/Mi9vWw"><img src="https://c7.staticflickr.com/9/8115/29730096606_c742f8ffed_n.jpg"></a><a href="https://flic.kr/p/Mi9vWw">yeamen-place-access</a> by <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/130059894@N04/">Paul fae Fountainbridge</a>, on Flickr </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=16885#post-231110 Sun, 18 Sep 2016 15:46:31 +0000 NiallA 231110@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>That's just crazy talk, SRD...

It was supposed to be out for consultation in the spring (so 6 months ago). The ongoing battle with the EW route has probably put a lot of things on hold.</p> <p>There was a <a href="http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15800">thread</a> started on it. It also appeared on the list of projects due for design:<br /> <a href="http://www.edinburgh.gov.uk/download/meetings/id/50113/item_77_-_9_budget_commitment_to_cycling" rel="nofollow">http://www.edinburgh.gov.uk/download/meetings/id/50113/item_77_-_9_budget_commitment_to_cycling</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=16885#post-231080 Sun, 18 Sep 2016 11:58:36 +0000 Fountainbridge 231080@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Is anybody aware of any strategic plans for the Fountainbridge / Dundee Street corridor in terms of cycle ways / pedestrian improvements?</p> <p>Given the large amount of completed development on Fountainbridge, the underway and the planned, there doesn't seem to be any joined up thinking.</p> <p>I know I'm the one that should know, but have to say I don't.</p> <p>I'm aware there's [limited] plans for outside the new school but that appears to be it.</p> <p><a href="https://flic.kr/p/DD73Ac"><img src="https://c8.staticflickr.com/2/1607/24705090151_d9242b8185_n.jpg"></a><a href="https://flic.kr/p/DD73Ac">Capture3</a> by <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/130059894@N04/">Paul fae Fountainbridge</a>, on Flickr </p>
