Conclusion 34 Appendix 1 35 3 1. Introduction and Background In 2016 the Scottish Government announced its intention to support the development of 50,000 new affordable homes in Scotland by March 2021. Meeting this target is ambitious and will require increased investment by the Scottish Government, Local Authorities and Registered Social Landlords and a step change in the pace of housebuilding in order that it is achieved. The delivery of more affordable housing remains a high priority for Midlothian Council which begun a development programme of 1,000 new council houses in Midlothian. The purpose of Midlothian’s Strategic Housing Investment Plan (SHIP) is to set out strategic investment priorities for affordable housing over a 5 year period to achieve the outcomes set out in the Local Housing Strategy (LHS). The SHIP is also the key document for identifying strategic housing projects towards meeting the Government’s 50,000 affordable housing target. This document is updated annually to present up to date information on affordable housing investment plans. The SHIP provides an opportunity for the Council to: • Set out investment priorities for affordable housing and identifies how these will be delivered • Identify the resources required to deliver these priorities • Involve key partners in the delivery of new affordable housing.

Monitoring and Review Page 10 Annex A: Targets for each Travel Plan Objective Page 11 Appendix: Analysis of Responses to the Travel Questionnaire Page 13 Published by Midlothian Council April 2017 1 • Introduction: Purpose of the Travel Plan 1.1 A Travel Plan is a package of measures aimed at promoting sustainable travel within an organisation, a necessary component of which is a reduction in single occupant car trips (principally those that are part of the daily commute) as well as addressing car parking and car use in general. It also aims to make necessary car travel more sustainable. A travel plan is tailored to the specific circumstances of an organisation and the sites where it is based, taking into account factors such as current modal split, size and location of the organisation or buildings, number of staff employed, the number of visitors and the number of deliveries or contractors servicing buildings. Travel planning is not a one-off document; it is an ongoing process of organisational change, a dynamic process that grows and develops with time to reflect changes in staff and visitor characteristics and the requirements of the organisation implementing the plan. 1.2 This Travel Plan demonstrates how Midlothian Council has applied national, regional and local policy to its own operation, in support of transport policy across Scotland.

  • Borders Railway Baseline Study Final Report Borders Railway Baseline Study Transport Scotland
    transport.gov.scot Borders Railway Baseline Study Final Report Borders Railway Baseline Study Transport Scotland 2 Borders Railway Baseline Study Transport Scotland Transport Research Summary 2016 The Borders Railway re-opened on Sunday 6th September 2015. In line with Transport Scotland‟s best practice appraisal and monitoring / evaluation guidance, the impact of the new rail line will be evaluated. To inform this evaluation, this research aimed to develop a baseline of the travel behaviour patterns and the socio economic characteristics of the area prior to the re- opening of the line. Main Findings There was a high degree of awareness of the scheduled re-opening of the rail line amongst both residents and businesses in the Scottish Borders and Midlothian. Anticipated use of the rail line amongst residents in the Scottish Borders and Midlothian was also high, with 84% (n=2,826) of respondents in these areas anticipating that they would use the new railway in the first 12 months. Anticipated use amongst residents in Edinburgh, East Lothian and West Lothian was low for leisure and commuting purposes but relatively high for leisure travel, with 53% of respondents in Edinburgh, 48% in East Lothian and 42% in West Lothian stating that they anticipated using the service for leisure trips. Of those residents of the Scottish Borders and Midlothian who had moved to the area within the last 5 years, 15% stated that the re-opening of the line had been a main factor or one of a number of important factors in their decision to move to the area. In contrast, none of the businesses who had recently moved to the two local authority areas stated that the rail line had been a factor in their decision to relocate.

  • Lighting the Way for Sustainable Energy in Midlothian a Design
    Lighting the way for sustainable energy in Midlothian – 1 Lighting the way for sustainable energy in Midlothian A Design Forum learning piece A new Recycling and Energy Recovery Centre for Edinburgh and Midlothian celebrates a positive vision for sustainable energy, successfully integrating a large piece of energy infrastructure into a challenging and changing landscape to provide added amenity for the surrounding communities. Lighting the way for sustainable energy in Midlothian – 3 < Aerial view of site looking South East Background Proposals for a new Recycling and Energy Recovery Centre (RERC) were procured by Zero Waste: Edinburgh and Midlothian, a major joint project between the City of Edinburgh and Midlothian Councils to deliver, through private sectors, dedicated facilities for the processing of residual, or ‘black bag’ waste1. The facility will be located on the site of the former Millerhill Marshalling Yards in Midlothian, on the border of Edinburgh and East Lothian. The site has an industrial heritage, having been part of railway marshalling yards in the 1960s-80s. Located between currently active railway marshalling yards and the former Monktonhall Colliery immediately to the west, the site is now being redeveloped as Shawfair, a significant planned new town development. In an earlier project a section to the north of the site has been developed ^ Former Monktonhall Colliery to the west of the RERC site with an anaerobic digestion facility to deal with food waste. Significant developments are planned in the near and medium term around the site and across the three authorities. This emerging context created a v dynamic environment that both influenced, and was influenced by, designs Location: Millerhill, Midlothian for Millerhill.

  • The PRS in Scotland for Houses - Is This Meeting the Needs of Families?
    The PRS in Scotland for Houses - Is this meeting the needs of families? A Savills research report for the Scottish Futures Trust Contents 1 Executive summary 2 Scope & purpose of report 3 Macro PRS trends 4 Scotland central belt PRS analysis 5 Lessons from England on institutional PRS 2 1 Executive Summary 3 Key Findings Suburban homes that are built to rent should be part of Scotland’s housing development pipeline and strategy. They offer the potential to deliver high-quality, modern homes available for long-term rent in popular, well connected suburban locations. In supporting this tenure and type of development there is the potential to accelerate the supply of new homes, which will reduce pressure on all parts of the housing market and in turn give those living in the rental sector improved choice and a stronger sense of security. • 393,000 or 15% of households in Scotland are estimated to live in the private rented sector and there is an established suburban rental market. • At the time of the 2011 census, 38% of renters lived in houses and 58% of rental households were out with the four main cities. The Scottish Household Survey suggests that this trend has intensified with suburban areas witnessing strong rental household growth. • Accessing home ownership has become increasingly challenging as a result of increased demand. House Price Inflation has outstripped wage growth and limited development of new homes has limited supply. • As a result more people are renting, and renting for longer, often indefinitely with the need for deposits and mortgage limitations constraining access to owner occupation.
