A couple of answers from the council

I have just received an email from Ruth Muir, the poor sod at the council who seems to have been lumbered with answering all my questions. I had asked how many pay and display spaces there are in Zone 8, thinking this would be a good way to judge how effective dual use parking would be at redressing our problem. She has sent me this list:

That wouldn't go all the way to sorting out our problem but it would certainly help.

BTW, the reason that some streets appear multiple times is that each contiguous block of spaces is listed separately. If your browser supports long titles then hovering your mouse over the street name will show the details of the block. Otherwise you can download the original document from http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/hleather/parking/schedule5.doc once I get round to putting it on the website.
