Pedestrianise Elm Row - Petitions (Closed)

Petition details
As the Covid restrictions in Edinburgh begin to ease, those businesses without space for outside seating are at a severe disadvantage.

My proposition to the council is to help local businesses who do not have much (if any) out door seating,

I ask the council to consider closing Elm Row to traffic for at least one day a week to give the businesses a fighting chance in staying open.

Closing Elm Row to traffic one day a week and allowing businesses to extend their seating onto the road, maximising outdoor capacity.
