Edinburgh Corporation Transport map : c.1929 : north west section

Another in the frequent series of Transport Department maps of Edinburgh with a full size folding map complemented with information as to the Department's services, including some fare and timetable information, along with adverts for local companies and concerns. These early series are undated but this feels to be at sometime in 1929; the title of "Tramways and Motors" has been dropped, F. A. Fitzpayne is now General Manager having replaced R. S. Pilcher in 1929 when he left for Manchester, and one advert notes the Corporation's guide books for a range of years across 1929, 1930 and 1931.

The newly electrified tramways have not yet quite reached their fullest extent; the extension of the Corporation's tramcars over the tracks of the now defunct tracks of the Musselburgh & District Company that abandoned its trams for buses in March 1928, to Levenhall is shown but the short extension beyond Gorgie to Stenhouse, completed in July 1930, is not shown. The now rapidly growing bus system has been considerably expanded with the more flexible motor bus serving both as feeder services to tram routes along with serving growing suburbs, such as Lochend, where densities were seen as not warrenting the fixed capital costs of tramway construction.

The growing popularity of the then seasonal tourist coach trips and bus services are also demonstrated with details of the various city trips and bus services to locations such as Hillend and Cramond.

The map is based on Bartholomew's cartography. The north west section shows the city centre and then westwards through little developed areas such as Blackhall towards Cramond was well as north through the New Town towards Canonmills, Goldenacre, Granton and Newhaven.

Based on Bartholomew's cartography, this, the south west section of the map shows out to Corstorphine through Haymarket and Murrayfield as well as south through Gorgie, Longstone Craiglockhart, Colinton, Bruntsfield, Marchmont, Morningside and Braids. The housing schemes west of Gorgie towards Sighthill will be built later.

As seen in these advert panels, the growing popularity of the then seasonal tourist coach trips and bus services are also demonstrated with details of the various city trips and bus services to locations such as Hillend and Cramond. As well as private hire vehicles, for dance parties in Edinburgh, the route list for buses is shown. Oddly the bus route numbers are not shown here. In the midst are shown the early cars and the 'first & last times' of the city's trams.
