At 39.5% it’s not as high as it should be and I’ll be focusing a lot of attention on achieving even more progress.</p> <p>I’m also keen to keep pushing towards the goal of every area of the City reaching our target in terms of street cleanliness. There’s been a lot of progress made in both areas in the last 7 years but still a lot of work to do.</em></p> <p><em>Your plan of attack for the next 12 months?</p> <p>I’m going to be working very closely with my coalition colleagues to deliver our agreed pledges and try and resolve some long running big issues too like the air quality around the city’s vital access roads.<br /> </em></p> <p>All very laudable and "on message". Judging by his stated priorities definitely more of an Environment Vice Convener, which is no bad thing. Doesn't necessarily help "us". </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=12405#post-145764 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:32:50 +0000 chdot 145764@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>More recycling than cycling -</p> <p><a href="http://www.theedinburghreporter.co.uk/2014/03/the-edinburgh-reporter-chats-with-councillor-adam-mcvey" rel="nofollow">http://www.theedinburghreporter.co.uk/2014/03/the-edinburgh-reporter-chats-with-councillor-adam-mcvey</a> </p>
