Conditions fine at the time though. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11660#post-133421 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 17:08:01 +0000 kaputnik 133421@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>No gritting on the Hutchison Crossway path or any of the Broomhouse Path. Still fairly white with frost even at 11AM as I was heading in to work after being at GP. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11660#post-133419 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 17:03:21 +0000 wingpig 133419@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>No way Leamington Walk or the western half of NMW or the southern bit of MMW had been done, not even using the "dump a pile of salt at the foot of LW and hope for the best" technique employed last year. Holyrood Park path also not done this morning. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11660#post-133416 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 16:45:15 +0000 Colonies_Chris 133416@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>A lot of frost on the Craigleith-Drylaw-D Mains path at lunchtime. No sign of gritting or salting. I came back on the road. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11660#post-133310 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 12:47:11 +0000 Zenfrozt 133310@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The waters of leith path had been gritted last night when I was riding it about 5:00 - 5:30pm </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11660#post-133296 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 12:14:34 +0000 BaseCut 133296@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Small gritter transit van on the NEPN last night about 7pm. Was in good nick this morning I thought. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11660#post-133292 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 12:07:26 +0000 Roibeard 133292@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I saw a small gritter on the "northbound" footway of Dalkeith Road from Cameron Toll about 1745 last night.</p> <p>That's no confirmation that they're doing the off-road paths, but the above section of footway has no houses or shops on it, so wouldn't have been part of the "usual" gritting - pedestrians being more likely to use the other footway on that stretch.</p> <p>Robert </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11660#post-133251 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 10:03:06 +0000 SRD 133251@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>South team says they've been gritted. No sign of it to my eyes. Or parent I asked who'd come opposite way to school drop-off.</p> <p>Paths fairly clear and dry though. Patches of frost, which I took gingerly. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11660#post-133238 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 09:02:03 +0000 SRD 133238@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Anyone know if the off-road path network's been gritted? </p> <p>LW, SMW and MMW in particular ? </p>
