There has only been 3 occasions in the past 2 years of passing every day (twice) that there <strong>hasn't</strong> been taxis parked there. Nonsense bit of "infrastructure". </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13007#post-157349 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 12:23:01 +0000 kaputnik 157349@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>That taxi is either driving in or parked in a cycle lane... Single yellows though, so why not? Everyone else can go around...</p> <p>Sensible idea, surely in the best interests of the cabbies to protect themselves from all those malicious claims from vindictive cyclists of their allegedly poor and/or aggresive driving standards </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=13007#post-157345 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 12:04:34 +0000 chdot 157345@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/transport/taxis-could-be-fitted-with-cctv-within-months-1-3450172" rel="nofollow">http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/transport/taxis-could-be-fitted-with-cctv-within-months-1-3450172</a> </p>
