Surely it should be part of the plan from the start! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10594#post-124313 Sun, 08 Sep 2013 22:35:17 +0000 Colonies_Chris 124313@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Got this response from Sustrans a few days ago (after I had chased it directly with them).</p> <p>"If this is the sign on the lamp post at the south eastern corner of Charlotte square, then it is actually an old sign. However since the road layout change (due to the trams) more people have become aware of it. It isn’t well placed and we will reconsider cyclists’ movements and signage through Charlotte sq post tram work and subsequent road re-configuration (back to its original layout)." </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10594#post-116199 Fri, 28 Jun 2013 12:58:44 +0000 Colonies_Chris 116199@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Thanks - I've reported it on fixmystreet. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10594#post-116120 Thu, 27 Jun 2013 23:54:44 +0000 kaputnik 116120@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>There's a "streetsigns" category on Fixmystreet which will direct it to Clarence.

It's next to the railings around the square, on the SE corner. It's only visible if you're coming along S Charlotte St from Princes St. It indicates the way to Queensferry, to the left along the south side of the square, but you can't get close enough to read it until you're committed to going straight on; by then you either have to go all the way down to the lights at St Colme St before you can turn left, or get off and backtrack. Who should I contact to comment on this idiocy? </p>
