AA man was talking &gt;30 over all) that had ground to a halt in/around the Casino car park with dented wheels and/or deflated tyres. </p> <p>Dread to think what would happen if a <em>cyclist</em> hit the offending crater... </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8872#post-93064 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 16:39:34 +0000 Kenny 93064@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>They were back again this morning, doing more work at the same place. Not sure whether their previous repair was faulty? But it was mayhem again on the road. Alas, this time I was in my car... </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8872#post-90609 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 14:40:36 +0000 HankChief 90609@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Filtering on Maybury is the highlight of my morning.</p> <p>Anything overtaking me between Barnton &amp; Craig's Road will usually see me wizz past before the casino. The dark mornings are best as my flashing front lights usually get a widening of the gap.</p> <p>BTW the queue is back to Barnton and then some. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8872#post-90605 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 13:48:10 +0000 chdot 90605@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>"If you're on a bicycle, though, it's easy to glide past the blockage"</p> <p>Don't do that - you'll just annoy all those motorists who think filtering is a crime. </p> <p>"<br /> Filtering is still legal though.

This is due to the road being down to 1 lane. If you're on a bicycle, though, it's easy to glide past the blockage :) </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8872#post-90598 Sun, 11 Nov 2012 12:00:16 +0000 HankChief 90598@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Just seen a lorry and digger fixing your pothole.</p> <p>Looks like they are digging up quite an area around it so here's hoping its a long term fix. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8872#post-90477 Fri, 09 Nov 2012 19:29:34 +0000 HankChief 90477@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I go along there fairly regularly but I'm usually filtering so it's not one i've paid much attention to until your post.</p> <p>It would be helpful if you could see what has been reported to Clarence and when. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8872#post-90364 Fri, 09 Nov 2012 08:38:58 +0000 biketrain 90364@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Please be careful of the large pothole on Maybury Rd, south-bound, outside the Shell garage, opposit the casino. I had the misfortune to drop into it last night and damage my wheel.</p> <p>Do regular cyclists know how long it as been there?</p> <p> Any advise on claiming for a repair from CEC wold be appreciated. </p>
