As a plan it's a little on the vague side, but there's lots of information in there, down to the level of detail of how often the bins are emtied.</p> <p>Not much on cycling other than an acknowledgement that responsible cycling is allowed post the Land reform act.</p> <p>The only specific cycling-related action is:<br /> "Monitor mountain bike use and remove inappropriate features such as jumps/berms - attempt dialogue with cyclists wherever possible."</p> <p>No mention of "poo-inna-bag" but a fair bit about dog fouling in general.</p> <p>Separate to this 'plan' there is also a Woodland Management Plan which is referenced; more info here:</p> <p><a href="http://www.fohb.org/new/woodland.htm">http://www.fohb.org/new/woodland.htm</a></p> <p>Anyone who has visted the Hermitage in the last few months will have seen that lots of trees have been felled and quite a few paths widened and resurfaced (and steps removed) (and aesthetically damaged too, you could say).</p> <p>More info available (inc. leaflets) near the Braid Road entrance. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=2287#post-24203 Wed, 16 Feb 2011 13:31:54 +0000 ruggtomcat 24203@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Nothing about the poo-inna-bag phenomenon, does this count as fouling? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=2287#post-24171 Wed, 16 Feb 2011 09:26:01 +0000 chdot 24171@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="http://cameronrose.blogspot.com/2011/02/new-hermitage-of-braid-and-blackford.html" rel="nofollow">http://cameronrose.blogspot.com/2011/02/new-hermitage-of-braid-and-blackford.html</a> </p>
