I think this was highlighted at the time of the development's planning application.</p> <p>What confuses me is the reference to Lover's Lane which as far as I can tell is at the other end of Scotstoun avenue and as duncans says isn't an obvious choice to cycle. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14498#post-182896 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 11:21:24 +0000 richardlmpearson 182896@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Second plan is more clear. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14498#post-182890 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 10:58:16 +0000 richardlmpearson 182890@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="http://citydev-portal.edinburgh.gov.uk/idoxpa-web/files/058D2CA2B5E5445EE484CF48258A154E/pdf/13_03310_AMC-72__CYCLEWAY_LONGITUDINAL_SECTION-1650620.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://citydev-portal.edinburgh.gov.uk/idoxpa-web/files/058D2CA2B5E5445EE484CF48258A154E/pdf/13_03310_AMC-72__CYCLEWAY_LONGITUDINAL_SECTION-1650620.pdf</a></p> <p><a href="http://citydev-portal.edinburgh.gov.uk/idoxpa-web/files/4F40490E884F5C718DF2813A7891ADBA/pdf/13_03310_AMC-03__SITE_LAYOUT__2_-1650736.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://citydev-portal.edinburgh.gov.uk/idoxpa-web/files/4F40490E884F5C718DF2813A7891ADBA/pdf/13_03310_AMC-03__SITE_LAYOUT__2_-1650736.pdf</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14498#post-182888 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 10:31:27 +0000 duncans 182888@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Lovers Lane isn't obviously a cycle route, and best avoided because infested with dogs; plans would be easier to understand if they're obtainable. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14498#post-182853 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 22:48:14 +0000 cb 182853@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Spotted in The Scotsman today</p> <p><a href="https://flic.kr/p/rh8wVs"><img src="https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8621/16591452940_06d5e4ac6e_n.jpg"></a><a href="https://flic.kr/p/rh8wVs">Queensferry to Dalmeny</a> by <a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/39014236@N05/">ccbb7766</a>, on Flickr</p> <p>Sorry for rubbish photo. Taken on a flight to London, just to remind myself to look it up later but can't seem to find reference online so posting the photo instead.</p> <p>Seems to just be some changes to the wee bit of path (NCN route 1 I think) linking South Queensferry to Dalmeny.</p> <p>Ages since I've been that way, but I seem to recall that it's not currently the greatest stretch of path in the world. </p>
