Note: individual base sizes shown in () Key Observations • The Covid-19 pandemic changed the way residents currently move around Edinburgh – Shift away from using buses as the main mode of transport – Increase in cycling and car usage – Walking became the most often used mode of transport • Most Edinburgh residents were familiar with the different types of Spaces for People schemes in place across the city – Particularly those in the city centre and on key major thoroughfares • Levels of support were higher than levels of opposition for all types of existing Spaces for People scheme – Those familiar with each type of scheme were more positive towards retention than those unfamiliar with the schemes • Key benefits were identified as making active travel safer for children and parents, and improving spaces for pedestrians • The main perceived disadvantages related to increased traffic and congestion • Amongst those familiar with individual schemes, support for retention outweighed calls for removal in the majority of cases – Numbers familiar with individual school schemes were too low to draw any firm conclusions • In terms of new / recently installed measures, views were fairly evenly split, with a high proportion unsure – perhaps not surprising given the likely lack of familiarity with the detail of these measures – However, in each area between 3 and 4 in 10 did not want to see any of the new measures removed post pandemic; whilst between 2 and 3 in 10 did not want to see any retained.

• Sample was provided by working with two online panel partners: Dynata and Panelbase – both members of Market Research Society and ESOMAR, who run panels exclusively for research purposes. • Each has a sizeable panel of members of the public who have agreed to complete research surveys in exchange for a small financial reward. • Panel members are recruited using a variety of methods – including in-street interviewing, direct email invitations, online marketing channels across a diverse range of websites, online affiliate partners and networks • Sample selection for surveys is driven by the profile requirements of each individual survey – in this case, sample was selected based on specific EH postcodes – Systems automatically extract at random the panel members who meet all profiling requirements. – This process is subjected to quality assurance checks in order to verify that the correct sampling requirements and expectations are met before engaging in the mass deployment of survey invitations. • Where sample is drawn from different sources, as in this project, the panel companies use third-party digital fingerprint technology to prevent duplication. • Response rates are monitored daily and additional invitations sent if required. Appendix – Method

• Several changes required to be made to the consultation survey to make it suitable for market research: – The market research survey was programmed to ensure all questions were answered by all respondents, with no skipping questions allowed, in order to ensure a full complete dataset – Introductory and explanatory text was kept to a minimum – Questions were split by areas of the city to make more user friendly and enable the market research survey to be optimised for completion on all devices, including mobiles – Code lists and explanations of the measures were embedded into the main survey, as opposed to providing a separate factbank of streets and measures – At questions asking whether measures should be retained or removed for specific streets, the market research questionnaire did not have a code option ‘most or all’ – Respondents to the market research survey able to select as many or as few streets as they wished for measures to be retained / removed
