There was a L&amp;B police van driving down a column of taxis on the northbound side of the bridge who were all parked there, and moving them on. There was also another, smaller column on the opposite side.</p> <p>There were still airport buses trying to use the bridge.</p> <p>There were still tour buses trying to use the bridge.</p> <p>There were still tourist / rail replacement coaches trying to use the bridge.</p> <p>They obviously haven't got the message yet so maybe a few ASBOs being dished out should sort things out. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=3005#post-31783 Fri, 20 May 2011 15:55:51 +0000 chdot 31783@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Is this <em>more</em> antisocial?<br /> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/chdot/5739757868/in/photostream"><br /> <img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3259/5739757868_e12ddd4b62.jpg"></a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=3005#post-31770 Fri, 20 May 2011 13:51:49 +0000 kaputnik 31770@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>You've got them on that one Dave. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=3005#post-31763 Fri, 20 May 2011 13:30:26 +0000 PS 31763@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><em>How can sitting in your cab outside a station be antisocial behaviour?"</em></p> <p>Gangs of a different social group, similarly clad and hanging around together with apparently nothing to do are always a bit intimidating and therefore antisocial. I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm always uncomfortable cycling past groups of taxis. You never know when one of them's going to pull a u-turn side-swipe on you. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=3005#post-31753 Fri, 20 May 2011 12:50:50 +0000 DaveC 31753@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I love the para where Raymond Davidson, secretary of the Edinburgh Taxi Association, said: "...They wouldn't be there if there was no business for them...".</p> <p>I beg to differ. They wouldn't be there is there WAS business for them. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=3005#post-31751 Fri, 20 May 2011 12:43:49 +0000 chdot 31751@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>"This is silly.
