CityCyclingEdinburgh was launched on the 27th of October 2009 as "an experiment".
IT’S TRUE!
CCE is 15years old!
Well done to ALL posters
It soon became useful and entertaining. There are regular posters, people who add useful info occasionally and plenty more who drop by to watch. That's fine. If you want to add news/comments it's easy to register and become a member.
RULES No personal insults. No swearing.

The new newest?! Edinburgh cycle infrastructure. Not yet opened but looks good.
Although shame about the lack of protection against pavement parking.

Nice, but is that really ‘hand laid’ tarmac?
Roughly here https://maps.app.goo.gl/QZZeQgVJQQUMtFUe7?g_st=ic
(Apparently) not on the ‘normal’ active travel programme.

Hopefully not hand laid. I think the pattern has been made by the burner which they use to clean the surface before applying the paint markings.
Ah
Interesting
Wait I thought that one got screwed over last year by Labour's dirty wee deal with the LD's and Tories, up for "review"(with the obvious intention to find an excuse to rip it out)?
Ratho, north of Bridge Inn.
Nice.
Similar ridging (and markings) has recently appeared on the Innocent Path, on the slope to the Duddinston Park ped crossing.

Interesting to see the bidirectional cycleway is now finished at West Shore Rd.
SUDS planting looks good… but seems flush with the kerb to store any runoff

His comment about use of blister tactiles is well founded.
Since the route there is a cycle path, the 4-bar corduroy paving should have been be used across the full width where it meets the footway at the pedestrian crossing. The sections where the footway and cycle path are adjacent, between the planted areas, should be delineated with the raised trapezoidal paving units.
If the cycle path was instead intended as being shared with pedestrians, with no segregation, then you would specify the 8-bar corduroy paving at the transition.
Why is a segregated cycleway needed at all on this road? It already has a modal filter and is effectively a dead-end.
Or, don't tell me they plan to rip that out as well?
Presumably there's a high enough chance that the lib Dems will get the road reopened that it was still worth building the otherwise totally superfluous cycle track
