I was delighted to attend the Lochend Community Road Safety event today organised by Living Rent and held at Craigentinny Community Centre. The themed cup cakes will go down a treat this afternoon!

I popped out to Riccarton Mains Road this afternoon to check on the resurfacing progress. We are two weeks into a six week program and things are starting to take shape. Thankfully the crater like set of potholes at the end of Weaver’s Knowe Crescent are also being tackled as part of this work.

Angry on a Monday morning is no way to start the week! Out on my morning walk this morning and someone has snapped all but one of the new trees in Pentland Park 😡 why would you do that? I’ll report this damage to our fantastic parks team today and see if I can get them replaced.

Just wouldn’t have been right if I hadn’t used a bike today would it? Waverley Station to Bruntsfield, 12mins, £1.32 👍

I spoke to BBC Scotland yesterday at the launch of the Edinburgh’s new Voi e-bike cycle hire scheme explaining how I think people will use them to improve and enhance the commuter experience. 🚲

I had a wonderful evening last night at the Scottish Transport Awards in Glasgow. I was very proud to see awards for both the City of Edinburgh Council and Lothian Buses. Well done to everyone involved.

Had a great time at Bruntsfield Primary today talking with pupils about democracy, local government, and transport. Smart questions, big ideas — they’re already thinking like future leaders. Grateful for the warm welcome! 🗳️🏙️🚲

Great night at the Currie Beer & Curry Festival with @drscottarthurmp.bsky.social 🍛🍺
We sponsored a barrel — turns out Scott’s better at drinking it than pouring it 😂
Big love to everyone who helped raise money for great causes.

🌿 Taking Action in Balerno!
Lots of residents have flagged the weed issue—so it was great to see the council out on Bridge Road this week, tackling it head-on.
Progress like this matters. Let’s keep it going.

Visited Biffa in Broxburn today to meet Marcin and the team and see how Edinburgh’s recyclable waste is processed. Impressive work happening behind the scenes to keep our city sustainable. ♻️👏

I was dropping off some paperwork with a constituent in Balerno yesterday when I bumped into the “Pothole Killer” who was working on the street.

Difficult Full Council today as we mourn the loss of my good friend and colleague Cllr Val Walker. Rest in peace Val.

Tonight I attended the launch event of the Wester Hailes Community Climate Adaptation Plan. Fascinating insight into an important piece of work led by the community for the community.
