Pictures too. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9287#post-97088 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 14:01:33 +0000 crowriver 97088@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Not before time. If/when the ice disappears, I look forward to trundling along NMW without having to endure teeth-jarring bumps, or swerve around the craters.</p> <p>The resurfacing/remodelling: when is that scheduled for I wonder? Presumably before the financial year end (April)? Any improvement before that has got to be welcome. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9287#post-97080 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 13:19:05 +0000 kaputnik 97080@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Heh.</p> <p>SRD wouldn't be surprised if someone reported the holes to fix months ago and the cooncil are just catching up. They've only just got round to infilling around the manhole cover at foot of Argyle Place left turn lane that I first reported about 3 months ago. They have of course completely ignored the similarly poor state of the other manhole cover not 2 metres from it.</p> <p>And you give the council too much credit if you imagine that the pothole filling department makes reference to the department planning improvement works to a bit of path before turning up with their wheelbarrow of soft tar to dump in it and lightly tamp down! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9287#post-97079 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 13:08:40 +0000 SRD 97079@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-dorset-21028162">"fix me" </a> courtesy of the bbc</p> <p>is it my imagination or has someone come along and filled in potholes on the pedestrian side of NMW (nr junction with MMW)? not very good patches, but bizarre thing to do given they're about to redo the whole thing. </p>
