A DATE FOR YOUR DIARY – 11TH OCTOBER

This year’s annual public meeting of Living streets Edinburgh Group will focus on ‘City centre transformation’, and we’re delighted to have as our keynote speaker Daisy Narayanan, who is leading the City Council’s City Centre Transformation project. As usual, we will have workshops as a key part of the event – these will focus on the general opportunities for, and barriers to, a walkable city centre, including discussion of potential ‘strategic walking routes’ to and through the city centre. Daisy has indicated that she is keen to hear feedback on the city centre project and will welcome points arising from the workshop discussions.

We will also have updates on our campaigning work over the last year, including the successful outcome of our lobbying on A-boards, now to be banned from all streets in the city – and our plans for 2019.

The venue is the Quaker Meeting House on Victoria Street on Thursday 11th October. Registration will start at 19.30, and the proceedings will kick off at 19.45, with the meeting ending by 21.30.
