The full report will be published shortly and copies will be forwarded to members of the Committee. 85000 people had used the web site and 5880 responses had been received. Phase two of the consultation will commence in early January 2017. The emphasis then will be on holding more drop in meetings .Andrew Mather commented on the increased noise in Cramond due to the increase in departing traffic over the area. He stated that it should be fundamental that aircraft stick to the agreed track. EAL had engaged the services of The Consultation Institute an independent body with wide experience of consultation throughout the World. A Stakeholders Reference Group which involves Community Councils, Chambers of Commerce and Tourist Boards has been set up under the Chairmanship of Dame Sue Bruce. The EACC is represented . The Group has provided some exellent feedback to enable EAL to prepare its report. MASTERPLAN: EAL prepares a new plan every five years when it updates its policy on such ​ matters as land, future planning and road access. It is not about flight paths or noise. It is proposed to close the second runway which is used only 30 times per year and which attracts a lot of noise complaints. The land freed up would be used in the future expansion of the airport. EAL is part of the Edinburgh West End Development Group which takes an overall view of future development in the area. Vital to this is an improvement in local roads with better access to the airport . A new road is being considered from the Gogar Roundabout using the tram access which would serve both the airport and the Ingliston area. CHIEF EXECUTIVES REPORT: Traffic Figures: Passenger Figures: During the 3 months to June a total of 3,819,957 passengers passed through the ​ airport with 37% being Domestic and 63% International. During the corresponding quarter to 2015 domestic travel has fallen by 1% due mainly to the withdrawal of the Virgin Red Service to Heathrow whilst international travel has risen by 19% due to the continued growth in international travel and the introduction of 30 new routes throughout the year.. Edinburgh benefits from an excellent inbound flow which makes it untypical of other regional airports. Air Transport Movements: Compared to the corresponding period in 2015 domestic movements had ​ fallen by 2% whilst international movements had risen by 18%. Stefan Slater queried these figures and the way they were calculated. Gordon Robertson will look into the matter and will contact Stefan. Traffic Mix: The traffic mix for the period was 98% scheduled and 2% charter ​ Freight: During the quarter the total freight carried was 9,830,497kg. ​ Day v Night: In July there were 11848 flights of which 1150 were night, in August there were ​ 11813 flights of which 1073 were night and in September there were 11115 flights of which 976 were night. CAPITAL INVESTMENT: Projects under Construction: EAST Expansion: The final part of this project is now in its final month. The development will ​ allow growth of the existing retail outlets within the departure lounge and will include new fashion, retail and food and beverage. Projects Completed: Runway rehabilitation Autumn 2016: Minor rehabilitation works have been undertaken as planned ​ as part of the annual rehabilitation programme. Stand 12 modification: These works were aimed at maximising the use of the existing main apron ​ as well as utilising the new Immigration 2 facility to accommodate both Middle Eastern flights. Baggage Hall resilience improvements: This work involved a substantial overhaul/replacement of ​ key mechanical and electrical components to ensure resilience in the back of house baggage system. Projects being developed: Next phase major terminal development: This project is working through the development stages ​ and is primarily aimed at providing capacity for gate rooms, immigration, baggage reclaim and stands. Baggage plus Check in Futures Programme: This project will look into the implications of ​ technology changes and capacity beyond 2015. COMMUNITY INVESTMENT: The Community Board will meet in November when a further ​ round of funding applications will be allocated. It is anticpated that the funds dispersed during 2016 will total £120000. Applications have just closed to become Edinburgh Airport's Corporate Charity of the Year. A record number of 40 applications have been received and all nominations will go to a staff vote. Guide Dogs for the Blind , the present Corporate Charity has proven to be a very successful partner for 2016 and have inspired the airport to adopt a new protocol with regards to confiscated sealed items. EAL now donates sealed liquids including bottes of spirits, wine, perfume and aftershave as well as children's toys to Guide Dogs for fundraising purposes. EAL plan to continue this with the 2017 Corporate Charity of the Year. SURFACE ACCESS: Bus Services: Buses continue to perform well with all routes showing year on year growth. The ​ th Stagecoach 747 service to Fife began operating 24/7 from 15 ​ August. ​ Trams: Tram passenger numbers continue to grow. Timetable enhancements are planned to ​ commence in December which will increase frequency to every 7.5 minutes 7 days per week. Build work is on schedule for the new Edinburgh Gateway Station rail and tram interchange to open on time in December. Edinburgh Airport is now a recognised railway station and passengers will be able to purchase through tickets to the airport. Surface Access Strategy: The latest available data shows that the public transport mode has fallen to ​ 30.9% as a 12 month rolling average. This is down on the previous quarter but is due to seasonality and follows the same pattern as previous years. It compares with 30.5% for the equivalent 12 month period in 2015. NOISE COMPLAINTS ANALYSIS: There were 608 complaints during the quarter from 260 complainants. EAL responded to 95% of these complaints within 5 days. The main area of complaints was Cramond with 139 complaints from 61 residents. Due to prevailing wind conditions more use of 06 was made for departures. There had been an increase in individuals complaining which is likely due to the awareness of the Air Change Programme. There was also an increase in the number of night flights reported and people requesting a ban or limits on the number of night flights. EAL intends to install a new noise monitoring system and set up an Independent Noise Board. They have also recently appointed a Community Noise Officer. ROUTE DEVELOPMENT: New Routes: During 2016, 30 new routes will commence. Runway length is not a problem with ​ regards to attracting new routes and there is no market at present for Airbus 380 aircraft out of Edinburgh. EAL is looking at a further 4 long haul operations in 2017/2018. CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS ANALYSIS: July: The top issues for the month were airline/handling agents, car parks and security. ​ August: The top isues for the month were airline/handling agents, car parks and security. ​ September: The top issues for the month were airline/handling agents, car parks and security. ​ Commenting on these Gordon Dewar advised that the car park complaints related to lack of space and pricing. He felt that the security situation was greatly improved and was working well. There had been major problems with the baggage delivery times and the companies, Menzies and Swissport were having real difficulties meeting their SLA's. Gordon is to have meetings with the agents shortly to try to resolve the problems but the agent's contracts are with the airlines and not the airport. Comment was made that surveys had shown that Glasgow was outperforming Edinburgh in the provision of this service and that passengers were having to wait in excess of 30 minutes for their luggage to arrive. Gordon fully accepted that this was unacceptable. AOCB: Third Runway at Heathrow: Gordon Dewar was asked to comment on the recent decision to build a ​ third runway at Heathrow. He advised that he was very disappointed and felt that Gatwick would have been the better option. He doubted whether the development at Heathrow would ever go ahead. EACC Web-Site: The Secretary advised that following problems the web-site previously operated ​ in conjunction with UKACCS had been closed. Meetings are to take place to try to have the Committee web-site tied into the EAL web-site.

  • Kirkliston to Cramond
    Kirkliston to Cramond Last leg of a 4-part route down the full length of the valley of the River Almond. Starts Kirkliston. Quarter hourly bus (38) from Edinburgh. Also buses 63 and 600. Varied walk: banks of R. Almond, beside the airport runway; woods, estate; coast. Distance: 14 km Walk begins at bus stop on Kirkliston High St. adjacent to The Square beside the old Parish Church. Find a narrow snicket, behind black safety railings, next to a whitewashed cottage (2 doors right of the cottage with the ‘Amulree’ wall plaque). Follow the snicket as it doglegs left and the right towards the river. You emerge from Cobblers Close onto Wellflats Rd. Bear right. After a few paces go straight over the old railway path. After a few more paces, at the Y-junction, take the right-hand road straight ahead with a neat, brown fence on the right. The road looks to be ending but keep straight ahead along a really narrow pathway between houses, with a high fence on the right. This alleyway leads to the river bank. Carry on along a most pleasant stretch of river bank until you come to a bridge. Cross over. Turn sharp left to follow reasonably close to the riverside. Keep to the thin footpath on the low levee, rather than the field edge. Soon you come to the strange set of buildings of Hallyards. Walk straight ahead, keeping to the left of buildings. There are all sorts of strange containers, old vehicles and trucks. Keep going until your way appears to be blocked, or partially blocked.

  • The Royal Society of Edinburgh Issue 8 • Winter 2003/2004
    news THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF EDINBURGH ISSUE 8 • WINTER 2003/2004 RESOURCE THE NEWSLETTER OF SCOTLAND’S NATIONAL ACADEMY RSE Agrees …Science Education Matters The first report of the independent expert group, the Scottish Science Advisory Committee (SSAC), Why Science Education Matters, published in November 2003, identifies a range of measures which seek to make science education in Scottish schools a matter of high priority. The Royal Society of Edinburgh (RSE) welcomes this report and recognises the recruitment crisis faced by school science departments. The Society, with funding from the Scottish Executive, hopes to help contribute, in part, to reversing this problem by offering Scotland’s science and careers teachers Teaching Fellowships. This new scheme offers teachers the chance to undertake exciting projects in business, industry and research and aims to support them in encouraging higher-level science studies. Professor John Coggins, RSE Vice-President and Chair of the SSAC’s working group, said: Scotland is attempting to develop new science-based industries at a time when fewer students are applying to study science. It is vitally important to increase the number of science graduates. This new scheme will help science teachers become more aware of the latest developments in science and of the exciting opportunities for careers in science which they will be able to transmit to their pupils. The RSE believes that working together with other key bodies in Scotland in strategic partnership is the best way forward and actively promotes the education of young people throughout Scotland. Its programme of events for primary and secondary school students is designed to stimulate and develop an early interest in science, society and culture.

  • North West Locality Open Space Action Plan
    North West Locality Open Space Action Plan March 2017 North West Edinburgh Open Space Action Plan (March 2017) Introduction This is one of four Open Space Action Plans to support delivery of Open Space 2021, Edinburgh’s Open Space Strategy. Open Space is a key element of Edinburgh’s physical, social and environmental fabric and Open Space 2021 sets guiding standards for existing and new open space provision as the city grows. Through standards based on open space quality, size and distance from homes, the Strategy aims to increase the number of people that can benefit from greenspaces that are sustainably managed, biologically diverse and contribute to health and wellbeing. The Open Space Profile shows how the Locality compares to the overall picture of open space across the city, highlighting changes to provision. It is a working plan, to be reviewed periodically to capture collective efforts which lead to the improvement and extension of Edinburgh’s green network. Actions, including estimated costs, may be subject to review, further feasibility studies and change. The Action Plan sets out proposals to help reduce inequalities in access to good quality open space and play provision. In time, it will reflect local environment priorities emerging through co-production of Locality Improvement Plans by Community Planning partners. The first version shows citywide priorities identified by Edinburgh’s annual parks quality assessment and actions carried forward from the existing Play Area Action Plan (2011-16) and previous Open Space Strategy (2010). The Action Plan will co-ordinate ongoing open space management actions with those relating to development, including changes arising from individual planning decisions and the delivery of new parks and play areas through the adopted Edinburgh Local Development Plan (LDP).
