The Act makes provision for the designation of conservation areas as distinct from individual buildings, and planning authorities are required to determine which parts of their areas merit conservation area status. There are currently 39 conservation areas in Edinburgh, including city centre areas, Victorian suburbs and former villages. Each conservation area has its own unique character and appearance. Character Appraisals The protection of an area does not end with conservation area designation; rather designation demonstrates a commitment to positive action for the safeguarding and enhancement of character and appearance.

  • Summary of May 2005 User Survey on the Roseburn Urban Wildlife Corridor
    Summary of May 2005 User Survey on the Roseburn Urban Wildlife Corridor Following on from the user survey conducted by FRUWCA and Blackhall Community Association in December 2004, which yielded much interesting and useful data, a further seasonal update was conducted in May 2005 to measure the increased use of the corridor outwith the winter months. Users Surveys completed Thurs 12th May 2005 8am – 5.30 pm 1031 360 Sat 14th May 2005 8am – 5.30 pm 1137 333 Totals 2168 693 (N.B. The usage figures for a 24 hour period will be higher still, as it was not possible to record usage before 8 am and after 5.30 pm.) Only 11% of those surveyed in May said they had also completed the December survey, so this survey represents a new body of opinion, but gives remarkably consistent results, with a clear message - the proposal to run the tram along the Roseburn Corridor is deeply unpopular with the general population. • Frequency of use: The survey showed that the great majority (79%) are regular users, with 51% answering “most days” and 28% answering “1-2/week”. • Purpose: There is almost a 50:50 split between people using the corridor to go to/from work (33%) or shopping (15%) and recreational users. Several were multiple purpose users (e.g. walking dog + shopping) • Almost everyone (96%) said that trees/wildlife/tranquility are important aspects of the cyclepath/walkway to them, with an even higher percentage (98.5%) rating safety/absence of traffic and location/accessibility as important aspects. • The age profile of users is very wide, with the majority falling into the 36-60 age bracket (53%), followed by 19-35s (27%) and 11% being 61+.

  • For Any Eye Problem Your First Port of Call Should Be an Optometrist. An
    For any eye problem your first port of call should be an optometrist. An optometrist is the best person to assess urgent eye problems, check for eye disorders and treat eye conditions. They have the professional training and necessary equipment to assess most eye problems and will refer you to see a specialist when necessary. All appointments are NHS funded. This service can be used for any concerns you may have with the health of your eyes including (but not limited to): Red eye(s) Something in your eye Sore eye(s) Eye infections Deterioration of eyesight Other disturbance of eyesight Cataracts Scratched eye(s) If you already have your own optometrist you should contact them in the first instance as having previous clinical records is very useful. If you do not already have an optometrist there is a list of some of those in the local area on the back of this sheet. Please contact them and they will arrange to see you. You can also choose to visit any optometrist providing NHS services for treatment. Note that when you contact the optometrist of your choice their staff will assess your symptoms and offer you an appropriate appointment. The time you will have to wait will depend on the severity and duration of your symptoms. Emergency problems will be seen quickly. If your problem is urgent and they cannot manage to see you they will find someone who can. After the appointment they may send you to a local pharmacy or request a prescription from your GP for appropriate medication or, if necessary, refer you to a hospital specialist.
