These maps show all of the changes proposed to aid social distancing around Edinburgh
Detailed plans have been unveiled to widen pavements, restrict parking and provide more space for cyclists in local high streets across the Capital.
The latest plans set out more detail of changes in six of the nine local areas of Edinburgh which the city council is focusing on.
The measures are set to be implemented under powers delegated to officials but “key stakeholders” in each area, including councillors, community councils and business representatives are given five days to comment.
Here are some maps and captions detailing some of the changes the Capital will see as the city becomes more catered to social distance living.

There will be intervention to widen footpaths on both sides of Raeburn Place, Deanhaugh Street and Hamilton Place. Additional parking/loading/unloading facilities will be provided on Cheyne Street. All bus stops will remain and significant footway widening along the full length of the high street from Dean Park Street to Hamilton Place, and the footway on the north side of Kerr Street, including the narrow corner at St Stephen Street.
