For your views on the proposed design for walking and cycling improvements on Arboretum Place, between Inverleith Park and the Royal Botanic Garden west gate.
A total of 301 people completed the survey. The majority were in support of the aims to make a change to the layout that would provide a better space for pedestrians and cyclists. There was support for the proposed design, with comments focussing on disabled parking provision, crossing points, the number of trees and the surfacing.
The feedback provided through the survey will be used to develop and improve the next stages of the design process.
This consultation gives people the opportunity to express their views about proposed initial design for walking and cycling improvements on Arboretum Place, between Inverleith Park and the Royal Botanic Garden West Gate.
These designs will convert the circular area between the Park and Garden into a new public space, creating a link between the two. The proposal is to create a space more suitable for pedestrians and cyclists with some disabled parking remaining at the kerb. Working with the Royal Botanic Garden a mix of tree species will be selected to provide interest throughout the area. New seating, lighting and crossing will allow people to enjoy the space and move through the area easily and safely.
The Council needs to understand and consider all the needs and views expressed by people regarding the street re-design.

Following the consultation, the designs will be further refined and developed by a design team of Council and external technical experts.
There will be further opportunities to respond to the designs as they are refined.
