Mainly cycling stuff in Edinburgh
Also blocking the Zebra. A 3rd driver rolled up and joined these 2 with his front wheel into the cycleway. He responded to my polite request to back off!

It continues! No bollards - supposed to be done before Christmas works freeze. Meanwhile why no signs/cones/barriers/wardens?

Looks like Rodney St southbound should be open soon

If you can get to Inverleith Park, quietroute 20 may be a better option. Otherwise, there are few safe alternatives.

No sign of anything happening on the Path as viewed through the gates this afternoon!

What if it was a road? Wouldn't happen.
Foot/cycleways need at least as much protection.
Site is big enough and works could be staged to allow a temporary alternative with signalised plant crossings - AS THEY WOULD DO ON A ROAD!
Not been aware of any consultation about short or longer term closures.

Fixed now. 90-100 secs wait.

Some of these movements may take 2 or 3 stages and potential for conflict with pedestrian phases. @spokes.org.uk has asked for a review prior to full switch-on

That’s about it.

Reported to Edinburgh Emergency number who have passed to signals. Recorded a 10min video waiting for them to change and then they did.
May be to do with whether button pushed but didn't try it. Shouldn’t be necessary.

Works are extending - more holes. Probably not worth diverting on bikes if you are able to walk it through a pretty straight pedestrian diversion as the works don't extend very far - just past the shops. Could do without the "Cyclists Dismount" - as if anybody would ride through!

Incorrectly shown on some maps too - I think even a council one
