Bloody cyclists again! @worldbollardassoc.bsky.social

As long as this comes with signage to stop rubbing his nose…!

Now do roads.

Edinburgh Trams has lost £73m in 8 years as taxpayers pick up 'eye-watering tab'The publicly-owned company made a huge loss in 2025 but still found the money to hand out a £327,000 golden goodbye to its former managing director.www.scottishdailyexpress.co.uk

The #EdFringe starts early with car brain comedy* signs: 1. Single file traffic: so let’s make the pavement single file too 2. Road ahead closed: so we’ve blocked the pavement too 3. Road ahead closed: sign blocking pavement obscured by cars anyway 4. Diversion: so pedestrians are diverted too

Here’s an example trip with our community eCargobike - easy day trip to Linlithgow and back! You can hire it for free too - just get in contact!

Lothian Buses & Edinburgh Trams accounts have been published. Expect focus tram losses as per previous years although we don’t get clear P&L accounts for road projects (or schools, hospitals or libraries…)! Tagging the @edinburghminute.com for tomorrow’s edition - get your informed comment there!

Remember kids: wear bright clothing and be conspicuous when you walk to school.

Unsurprising fact of the day: Glasgow built it. They came.

Hmmm 🤔. Is this good or bad @edinburghbug.bsky.social ?

The Princes Street and Salisbury Crags are combining to put strain on the city. Maybe there needs to be a message to the public: please walk, cycle or use public transport if you can so the transport network and emergency services can do the best they can for the city. @edinburghminute.com

Imagine how different #Edinburgh would look if we responded this way to street designs after road collisions….

Deliveries are impossible and as there is parking no one has visited since 1979…..

#Edinburgh 20mph cost £2.8mn. Results: 📉39% drop in casualty rates 📉40% fewer collisions 📉23% fewer fatalities 📉33% fewer serious casualties 🚗 Negligible change in travel time 💰£38mn saved in collisions, healthcare & productivity Still lots more streets to reduce to 20mph in Edinburgh.

Lots of social media comments indicate just how well trams give rapid access to employment and city destinations that the bus network can’t serve so quickly - exactly why extensions are proposed.

The same but use Ingliston Royal Highland Centre so tourists can just mill about and be flyered about fringe artists that they’ll never go and see. Leave the pavements to locals and actual fringe goers.
