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.
Just wondering if anyone remembers this?
I think it could be quite a handy tool to have a geographical overview of issues, potential schemes, possible 'quick fix' improvements etc. but probably only if a few people use it.
A quick search of the forum results in a few odd links to it, but nothing has been added to the site around Edinburgh in months
I think (hope) it's an idea that is (still) before its time.
Started by the people who brought us Cyclestreets, it should be very useful/wonderful - but needs more work.
In the meantime more people (in Edinburgh) using it would be good.
Perhaps those who do 'cyclehacks' could take an interest.
One of the useful features is the voting, which highlights issues that affect multiple people, allowing them to bubble up.
"One of the useful features is the voting"
Is that new?
Problem is getting enough people to register/use.
This is a nice idea! Critical mass of users will be important.... Hopefully more people will start to use it.
@chdot: The voting feature has been around for a long time, and also the popular tab within the group, which sorts the list based on the number of votes for the issue. http://edinburgh.cyclescape.org/issues#popular-pane
@Claire: Please start adding issues and discussing things on Cyclescape, someone needs to be the early adopter. :-)
New 'member' has been busy -
Stephan clearly lives near us. I particularly like this idea of his;
http://edinburgh.cyclescape.org/issues/1555-remove-chicanes
I wonder if B(AC)PA will move to protect this wonderful chicane, placed as it is so that it physically can't be negotiated if approached from the East, not by me anyway.

@Cyclescape: .@RangiRevo Cyclescape is very useful for people who are not interested in campaigning to submit issues so campaigners are aware of them

We're busy working on various improvements and new features for Cyclescape, and we know there are usability things still needing work. So we'd really welcome your views on what your priorities for improvement would be.
Please fill in our quick survey!
