From TEC March '25 report:
https://democracy.edinburgh.gov.uk/documents/s81238/8.1%20-%20Traffic%20Calming%20Measures%20-%20Dalmeny%20Park%20Estate.pdf
4.1 Officers are currently finalising proposals to introduce two raised table traffic calming / pedestrian crossing features on Scotstoun Avenue. Additional physical traffic calming features are also proposed on Burdock Road, alongside bollards within the Dalmeny Park Estate to improve pedestrian safety. The latter two features have been included following representation from a Ward Councillor and local residents.
4.2 The design is now complete, and it is expected the features will be installed in spring 2025.
4.3 The implementation of this scheme has faced delays and significant challenges due to:
—— 4.3.1 An interaction with a planned Capital Maintenance scheme for Scotstoun Avenue. Installing an earlier iteration of the traffic calming scheme in advance of the Capital Maintenance schemes would have led to abortive work;
—— 4.3.2 Historical reliance on external consultants to carry out design work for the earlier iteration of the scheme. The external consultant did not perform as expected leading to delays;
—— 4.3.3 Resource constraints, competing priorities, and significant staff changes; and
—— 4.3.4 More recently, the announcement of an Active Travel scheme on Scotstoun Avenue. This compromised the earlier design, and development of a new design was required to align with this scheme.
5.1 The proposed measures will be progressed for implementation in spring 2025.

Anyone have an inkling which scheme 4.3.4 "an Active Travel scheme on Scotstoun Avenue" is referring to?
