    From bluesky:

    Ferry Road Path CLOSED to pedestrians and cyclists from today to 16 January for installation of a security fence at Leonardo. TTRO closure order was signed on Wednesday with the below diversion: https://www.edinburgh.gov.uk/downloads/file/38417/temp-25-148

    Crappy diversion. Original poster suggests quiet route 20 better alternative and I would agree with that.

    Local Cllrs ‘on the case’ about ‘process’ and diversion.

    I am aware that most cyclists do what they can to avoid Crewe Toll Roundabout as drivers can be unbelievably reckless and impatient. I had to teach my two kids to walk to school and cross the roundabout at Telford Road and again on Crewe Road South. I literally trained them not to look at the green man but to look into the eyes of the drivers approaching to see if they have noticed the pedestrian crossings. I know I am not alone either and I have raised this multiple times as ClIr and previously as Community ClIr.

    From Bluesky... GOOD NEWS! According to my councillor, the path should reopening tomorrow and officers will explore more sensible options

    Thanks to Spokes and my colleague ClIr Vicky Nicolson for acting promptly. The work planned will go ahead in due course - we will be seeking assurance that arrangements are made that minimise inconvenience to path users. .
