Reported to Neighbourhood Fix-It

I pass these two defects every day.

Welcome to Edinburgh!

The first street furniture visitors to the city encounter entering from the South on the A702. Something (many things over many years, in fact) has recently displaced both islands which are now out of position and encroaching, awkwardly, into both centre lanes. Bump My Ride will monitor the site for developments.

These traffic islands are decades old. For reasons unknown they are not built into the highway but merely cemented onto the road surface. It is a testimony of sorts to the roadbuilders of old that this artery has not been re-surfaced for almost 3 decades.

Doesn’t it make you feel proud?

DURATION: Years and years. All of the above were reported again today.
