We'll see how they settle, but I reckon a substantial number of new trip hazards have been installed along with the "ultra-fast pure fibre". </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=16361#post-219274 Mon, 09 May 2016 13:50:59 +0000 Arellcat 219274@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The disabled guy has an electric mobility trike done up like a little Harley Davidson. Quite a cheery guy who'll be rather put out by these works. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=16361#post-219267 Mon, 09 May 2016 13:12:01 +0000 threefromleith 219267@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Forgot to post about that after coming across it on Friday heading back from work to Leith.</p> <p>Cycle path completely blocked off, with no warning and no alternative but to get off and lift the bike over the mucky verge you can see by the sign.</p> <p>Are these works planned by clowns? It's a major cycling route and there's no consideration for cyclists (nor the disabled / infirm - I often see a disabled guy in his powered wheelchair near here, so don't know how he'll get safely past this). </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=16361#post-219163 Sun, 08 May 2016 12:09:29 +0000 crowriver 219163@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Good grief what a mess! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=16361#post-219162 Sun, 08 May 2016 11:45:40 +0000 wingpig 219162@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="https://flic.kr/p/G3jyGE"><img src="https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7465/26280525734_135a761f2a_n.jpg"></a><a href="https://flic.kr/p/G3jyGE">Edinburgh Core versus Water of Leith path</a> by <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/wingpig/">wingpig</a>, on Flickr </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=16361#post-219161 Sun, 08 May 2016 11:37:32 +0000 wingpig 219161@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The WoL by Stedfastgate is currently being knackered by @EdinCore. There are plastic barriers, a trench at the bottom of a slope and they've made the path under the wee tunnel near St Mark's park even worse than it was. </p>
