1.1.5 Note that a report will be submitted to Committee in autumn 2024 with findings from the consultation and a draft Strategic Business Case.

Public Consultation
.20 To allow a Strategic Business Case to be developed, a consultation that builds on the findings from the CMP is proposed to take place in spring 2024 for a 12-week period. The consultation will show the recommended route across the four sections (Granton - City Centre; through the City Centre; City Centre - Bioquarter; and Bioquarter and beyond into the city region) and detail why it has been chosen. It will also give indicative locations for tram stops along the route. In addition, it will include details of the alternate routes that have been explored and the reasons why these have been discounted. Full details on route alignments on the four sections can be found in Appendix 2.
.21 Consultees will be asked to respond to a series of multiple-choice questions and will have the opportunity to give fuller answers via a free-text box. The consultation will be hosted on the Council's Consultation Hub and a series of public drop-in events will take place during the consultation period. Details of the consultation and associated communications plan are attached in Appendix 3.

It was an art installation! A part of that was about safer streets and reducing road danger at source. But definitely not traditional “road safety “ aka victim blaming
“

wider pavements and tighter junctions
greener streets and more crossing points
traffic filter at Haymarket to stop through traffic between 7am & 7pm (buses and taxis only)
