Braid Estate update: The changes to revert back to rat-running are now not due to be implemented on the ground until Jan 2026 – a full 5 years after they were first implemented. 5 years of quiet streets, that keep children safe, & much loved by residents blackfordsaferoutes.co.uk/braid-estate...

Maybe a congestion charge just wouldn’t affect Glasgow High Street. Or any other high streets elsewhere if introduced. Below is a list of outcomes from New York’s Congestion Charge - who wouldn’t want those?

Our partners in the local tool library, Colinton Village Enterprise are having a sale next weekend. Everything must go. #Edinburgh #OnSale

SUVs “Not Necessary in Cities” – a public event by @transform.scot on Edinburgh’s Leith Walk. Inviting the public to engage through interviews, surveys, and social media. And launched a "Carspreading” billboard on Leith Walk. #carspreading #SustainableTransport #transformscotland #SUV

#Edinburgh isn’t actually that great to cycle in - many people cycle despite, not because of, the infrastructure and facilities. So much pent-up demand across the city.

Bloody cyclists 🙄 @worldbollardassoc.bsky.social

Should pedestrians wait till the light shows green and walk on the road? @livingstreetsedi.bsky.social

And they’re off! c65 runners at the Hailes Quarry Park Junior #ParkRun, #Edinburgh his morning. 🏃‍♀️ #running (Huge thanks to the volunteers!)

This morning!

Things you didn’t think you needed in your life… but still fascinating: 🚋 World Tram Driver Championships - and #Edinburgh Trams are competing! 🚃 @edinburghtrams.bsky.social 📺 Watch live: www.youtube.com/watch?v=smp0...

This should be George Street, Stockbridge, Gorgie, The Shore or Chambers Street. #Edinburgh doesn’t uniquely need parking, merge pavements and tree-less streets.

Paris had reduced or closed hundreds of school streets to traffic. #Edinburgh has three years to work out a permanent solution to do the same at Trinity Academy - will it prioritise cars not kids in 2028…?

🤫 shhhh @edinreporter.bsky.social

In the next stage of 20mph roll out, Edinburgh isn’t extending the lower limit to all streets. Perhaps the question should be “why do you still support higher numbers of injuries and deaths on many residential streets?”

It began as an idea a good while back at one of our meetings, after which we sought a community grant from @edinburghcouncil.bsky.social , partnered with @sw20.info with great support from Parkrun & their Ambassadors.

Fascinating. Great reporting by @londoncentric.media about how #Edinburgh is being robbed of tax income. Thank you to the @edinburghminute.bsky.social for sharing!

Starts tomorrow!

Colinton Road, Newington, Ferry Road, London Road, Lanark Road, Longstone, Oxgangs Road… … if #Edinburgh wants economic growth, this is the way they should look.

It seems the West and North ETRO’s were added into the meeting papers with East ones at yesterday’s TRO sub committee meeting. This means the schemes progressed first as ‘Spaces for People’ and then as ‘Traveling Safely’ will now be made permanent across the city.

Like every city, despite vocal opposition, this multi-year study of an #Edinburgh street and cycling scheme shows massive benefits and increasing public and local business support. Every city that delivers schemes well helps deliver social and economic benefits. We need more #StreetsNOTRoads!

Starts this weekend! Sign up!

Three more sleeps! Sign up for #Edinburgh newest Junior #Parkrun!

First proper ride on a Voi bike and already had a ‘can’t park there mate’ from a business owner 😅 (The geofence doesn’t lie!)

20 minute neighbourhoods need good public art
