YAS AGM 2015– Heriot-Watt University Parking & Directions Edinburgh Campus, Edinburgh EH14 4AS

RSE Young Academy of Scotland- 2015 Annual General Meeting www.youngacademyofscotland.org.uk YAS AGM 2015– Heriot-Watt University Parking & Directions Edinburgh Campus, Edinburgh EH14 4AS To Edinburgh City Centre YAS Parking (free)– Parks A, B, & Q Postgraduate centre: AGM Sessions College Lounge: AGM Dinner College lounge Supported by Converge Challenge: Scotland’s Entrepreneurial Competiton convergechallenge.com 1 RSE Young Academy of Scotland- 2015 Annual General Meeting www.youngacademyofscotland.org.uk Travelling to Heriot-Watt University courtesy of: www.hw.ac.uk Car: Heriot-Watt University is located about 6 miles SouthWest of Edinburgh City Centre; it is half a mile from the Calder Junction of the A720 City of Edinburgh by-pass and the A71, and you’ll see signs for Heriot- Watt University on your approach. You can get driving directions to the Edinburgh Campus through Google Maps or by using the following website: http://www.hw.ac.uk/student-life/campus-life/edinburgh/getting-around.htm Parking will be available, free of charge, in lots A, B, and Q (marked on map above with purple stars ) Bus: Lothian Buses offers local bus services 25, X25, 34, 45 and N25/N34 (night bus) to the Edinburgh Campus. The journey takes about 30–40 minutes from the city centre, depending on what time of day you’re travelling. All national coach services to Edinburgh arrive at St Andrew Square bus station, at the east end of Princes Street. Timetables can be found on the Citylink and National Express websites. Rail: The mainline rail network serves the centre of Edinburgh well. Edinburgh Waverley is at the east end of Princes Street and Haymarket Station is at the west end. Curriehill Station, one mile from the University, offers a frequent service to Edinburgh Waverley and a service to Glasgow Central Station. We do not recommend alighting at either Edinburgh Park or Curriehill as there is no direct transport link to the campus from these stations. Proceed to Haymarket and catch a number 25 bus (Lothian buses) from Dalry Road (terminating at Riccarton). Rail timetables can be found on the National Rail website. Air: Edinburgh International Airport is served by scheduled national and international flights. The airport is on the west side of the city, just three miles from the Edinburgh Campus. The bus journey from the airport takes about an hour. The Airlink bus takes you to the city centre (£7 re- turn), then you can take a Lothian Buses service 25, X25, 34, 45 or N25 (night bus) from the city centre to the campus.

A Strategy for Public Transport 2020 - 2035
Keeping Edinburgh MOVING A Strategy for Public Transport 2020 - 2035 December 2019 Keeping Edinburgh MOVING The City is Slowing Down Edinburgh is suffering from worsening traffic congestion which delays buses and hinders efforts to curb the growth in car use. Unlike many other large UK cities which have well-developed suburban rail services, Edinburgh’s public transport is provided mostly by buses using the same roads as general traffic, resulting in low average speeds. A top priority for the city over the next few years must be to accelerate public transport journeys. 119.2 million passenger journeys were made on Lothian Buses in 2018, a decrease from 121.1 million in 2017, which the company’s directors attributed to slower journeys because of congestion and changes in travel patterns. These figures compare with the 212.3 million journeys made in the year to May 1962, despite competition from Scottish Omnibuses – highlighting the fact that city bus usage has almost halved over 55 years, while the population has grown from 464,000 to 518,000 people. The council’s recently-approved City Centre Transformation Strategy seeks to achieve a step-change in the quality of the environment of Edinburgh City Centre with a range of schemes to be pursued over the next ten years. Successful delivery of many aspects of the strategy will depend on a substantial reduction in the levels of traffic movement within the city centre. The strategy assumes a 25% reduction in vehicle movement, but is not linked to any wider programme of action to achieve significant modal shift from private car to public transport across the city.

Development Management Sub Committee Wednesday 8 May 2019 Application for Planning Permission 18/09397/FUL At 4 Currievale Farm, Currie, EH14 4AA Demolition of existing barn and formation of new kennels with 6 double kennels and isolation kennel for a total of 13 dogs, formation of a new dwelling house in the style of a barn conversion, formation of a dog freedom field (in retrospect), the formation of two poly tunnels with a possible third and ecological development of the remainder of the land. Item number Report number Wards B02 - Pentland Hills Summary The proposal involves a new development within the green belt which is not necessary for the purposes of agriculture, woodland and forestry, horticulture or countryside recreation; and for which there is no exceptional reason to justify its construction. The proposal involves the construction of new buildings which would have an adverse impact on the rural character and appearance of the surrounding area, and the design and scale of which is not acceptable. In addition, the proposal would have a materially detrimental impact on the living conditions of neighbouring residents. The proposal is contrary to policies Env 10, Des 1 and Hou 7 of the adopted Edinburgh Local Development Plan and the Council's Guidance for Development in the Green Belt and Countryside.
