    Some of you will already have received a mailing from Spokes about the Shandon parking consultation (pasted in below in case you didn't).

    If you do go, I hope you will support the proposal for double yellow lines at 4 of the access points to Harrison Park, and especially at the dropped kerb which gives access to the canal path. Thanks!

    B. SHANDON AREA CAR PARKING

    The Council's South West Neighbourhood Partnership is looking at parking problems in the area - blockage of narrow streets and street corners, access for emergency vehicles, and any other aspects. A good opportunity also to mention local difficulties caused for safe cycling.

    Further information, and a link to the proposals, is at
    http://www.edinburgh.gov.uk/info/20055/south_west_neighbourhood/596/what_s_on_in_south_west_edinburgh/6

    There will be 2 drop-in sessions where council officers will provide information and consult on measures proposed for the area.

    Tues 16 April and Weds 17 April
    both 4-7pm
    at Craiglockhart Primary School.

    If you are unable to attend you can also submit comments via the email address on the above web page.

    Proper double yellows I hope rather than those special Edinburgh double yellows for which you can get a priority parking permit!

    Whatever happened to this?

    There still aren't any double yellows opposite the entrances & dropped kerbs to either end of Harrison Pk.

    Has it all been forgotten...?
    Did the residents object too much...?

    I recently asked the same thing of a councillor and some officials. Before the holidays, they were still 'dealing with objections'. I don't really know what that means. And then it has to go to cttee. I'm not sure what that means either.

    But it has not been forgotten about.
