Very much the likes of me.
Jim Bowen stopped my wife and me on George IV Bridge to ask where we'd got our chips from.
Right folks. Feeling rather down at the moment so bringing back an oldie

So you still have one free hand? Maybe use that to spread the transport budget you do have in a more equitable way, with a bit more focus on the majority of residents who walk, bus and/to wheel to work. (Oh, and maybe don't blow £250million on a roundabout to feed more traffic into the city)
Important to point out that the Bus Infrastructure Fund for the whole of Scotland is £20m, Edinburgh has secured £2m. The previous scheme had a £500m budget of which only £27m was ever handed out. We have one hand tied behind our backs!

SERIOUSLY, WATCH THIS: If you really want to understand how huge SUVs and pick-up trucks have ended up being MOST of the vehicles out there in our cities, and the absolutely INSANE consequences of that, watch this easy-to-watch video by #NotJustBikes. Then please share it as much as you can.

👍 Council quite right to put this scheme on pause pending case against Cllrs Marie-Clair Munro (Con) & Neil Ross (LD)

It should then be scrapped, and traffic filters retained, to keep the quiet area for N-S *and* E-W 🚶👩‍🦼🚲 movement with no need for the controversial 🚲 lane

Just how selfish do you need to be to park on the pavement, across a dropped kerb, at the end of a marked crossing, outside a primary school when all the kids are arriving for a Christmas film show?

What started as a family looking for one kids’ bike turned into the whole family getting out on bikes — all because of one conversation and the Wee Bike Library. 🚲

This is what affordable, community-led cycling looks like in action.

#Everyday Heroes: One Conversation, a Whole Family on Bikes
Sometimes, making a difference starts with something small. A question at the till, a shared piece of information, a moment of human connection. A family came to The Bike Station with a clear goal:…

Absolutely pathetic. Climate crisis, anyone? Inactivity epidemic? Air pollution? Kids not feeling safe to walk to school?

SNP in particular should hang their heads in shame.

Yesterday we seized stock from three businesses on Princes Street which were obstructing the footway. This confiscation came after repeated warnings.

We'll continue to enforce the rules and make sure our footways are clear and accessible for all.
