“Council welcomes the positive public engagement with the Spaces for People programme, designed to ensure the safety of people walking, cycling and wheeling; and the contribution of this, and other holistic measures which support the allocation of public space, towards a sustainable, economic recovery for Edinburgh.

Council notes officers across relevant departments are working up a clear framework within which Edinburgh businesses can safely reopen and operate within all social distancing guidelines; and without detriment or compromise to accessibility; and to health and safety.

Council requests an update report on work to support business reopening, including actions taken to support business operating in outside spaces as soon as practicable.”
