Leith Economic Framework: consultation
(adapted from an email from Edinburgh Council’s head of economic development)
Edinburgh Council is consulting on the draft Leith Economic Framework. This will last 8 weeks, then a finalised version will go to Edinburgh Council’s Economy Committee on 28 April 2015. Edinburgh Council will then develop the “Priority Areas for Council Action” into an action plan with allocated responsibilities and timescales, to fit with the timetable for the overall operational plan for the Economic Development Service.
Alongside exploration of alternative options, Edinburgh Council will continue to examine options for the Leith Docks area as a hub for renewables manufacturing.
Please see papers on Edinburgh Council’s website – and let LCCC know what you think. We welcome input by post (28 Pilrig Street, Edinburgh EH6 5AJ), email and Twitter.
Leith Programme Stakeholder Update 66 – works update

Leith Programme Stakeholder Update 66
Works Update
Crummock (Scotland) Ltd commenced with the remaining contracted works in the Pilrig Street to Crown Place section of Leith Walk on 6 January. In tandem with this, they are also carrying out any remedial work as required. Weather conditions permitting, it is anticipated that all carriageway surfacing work will be completed by the end of next week with all work, including remedials, completed by the end of January. The current weather conditions are hindering the progress of specific elements of the job such as the installation of the road markings, for example, but every effort is being made to get this completed this as soon as possible.
Weekend Work:
The contractors will be working on Sunday 11 January in order to carry out work at the Stead’s Place and Jane Street junctions.

Leith Programme Stakeholder Update 65 – Works Update

Leith Programme Stakeholder Update 65
Works Update
Crummock (Scotland) Ltd have now completed the bulk of their contracted works in the Pilrig Street to Crown Place section of Leith Walk. As reported in the last stakeholder update (No.64, 12 December 2014), recent weather conditions had hindered progress and this, unfortunately, continued into the last week and impacted on their ability to get everything completed as planned. Like most contractors, Crummock cease their operations over the Christmas period but will be back on site starting Tuesday 6 January in order to both finish any outstanding works and carry out remedial work as required. In keeping with our current approach, we will be seeking for them to get this carried out as quickly as possible.
We would like to thank you for your patience during these works and hope that the new road surface, pavements and pedestrian crossings once fully completed improve the area for everyone who lives, works or visits. We appreciate that some of you have been in touch to let us know about specific concerns; your input has helped us to manage the programme and strive to minimise disruption for all as far as possible.
We hope you all have a safe and happy Christmas and a prosperous New Year. I will provide further updates in the New Year.
Regards
Alan
