Leith and the Shore is a popular choice for ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ residents with its wide range of places to eat, drink or shop.

It's really easy to get there by walking, cycling or by bus or tram.

Bus and tram

You can get the 16, 34, 35 and 36 buses to the Shore.

The Trams run every 7 minutes between the Airport and Newhaven and there is a stop at the Shore.

Parking

While we want to encourage more people to choose public transport, walking or cycling, we know that some of you do need a car to get around.

Recent changes to parking in the area have provided more parking for people with disabilities. Anyone with a blue badge can park in pay and display and shared bays and also single and double yellow lines under certain conditions.

Find out more about where you can park if you have a blue badge.

While the Shore itself has limited parking, making it a more pleasant area to walk around, there is parking in nearby streets within a short walk of the Shore.

You can find full details on parking spaces on our  and this map shows the areas for paid and shared use parking.
