Cover picture of the report Access & Movement section, first page map 2.6 ACCESS & MOVEMENT Existing Travel The site contains a range of paths and roads. Many of the roads are access only. The extent of carriageway is excessive compared to the traffic levels on the site. There are walking and cycling routes that cross the site. Due to size of the Astley Ainslie site these provide important routes for people travelling between the surrounding areas. The access within the main entry points on the site are safeguarded for active travel use in City Plan 2030. Some are also recorded rights of way. Despite the importance of the routes, the signage and accessibility across the site could be improved. There are also several gated access points, where opening the gates to pedestrians, and in some location cyclists, would improve the access and permeability of the site. The southern safeguarded entry to the site from Cluny Place is open but has signs prohibited access, running counter to the safeguards that are in place. This southerncontinued... access point will also be important for pedestrian access if a future train or tram stop is created on the south suburban line. At present the public transport accessibility of most of the site is poor. The closest buses to the site are those that run alongside Kilgraston Road, Morningside Road and Cluny Gardens. Strategic Travel Improvements Development of the site requires the provision of several pedestrian and cycle routes through the site linking to Canaan Lane, Cluny Place, South Oswald Road, Grange Loan to the east of the site and at Whitehouse Loan, including the following: • ATPR7: Active travel link and crossing: Cannan Lane to Grange Loan • ATPR8: New Active Travel route and crossing: Oswald Road to Cluny Gardens/Charterhall Road junction • ATPR9: New active travel infrastructure: Newbattle Terrace/Grange Loan • ATPR10: Provide a mobility hub • PT15: Contribute towards Public Transport Improvements: Morningside Road/ Cluny Gardens
