Yet again @waitrose are selling this dog chew toy with a battery in it. I complain regularly but they won’t remove it @DogsTrust @RSPCA_official @ScottishSPCA @goodboydog_

How can @waitrose think that selling a dog chew toy with a battery in it is a good idea?

@edinhelp Looks like a driver has gone through the bollards protecting pedestrians at Midmar Paddock. Two bollards damaged and one moved to other side of the road plus debris from car on path/road.

Parents at South Morningside Primary School are asking the Council to enhance traffic safety measures near the school. One Mum tells me her 8-year-old son was hit by a van near-by. My STV News at Six report 👇

@waitrose Will @waitrose wait until a dog swallows a battery for them to remove this product?

@waitrose I did speak the Duty Manager. He was very sympathetic but said he couldn’t do anything about removing it from the shelves.

@waitrose I see your Edinburgh Morningside store has restocked - unbelievable!

@SheenaNimmo Hi Sheena, thanks for bringing this to our attention. I've taken a look on our system and an investigation has already been raised regarding this product. The appropriate team has been contacted and this will be looked into internally. ^Neil

@CllrChasBooth Meanwhile, the Quiet Route in the Braid Estate has reduced traffic by 40% with minimal 2% increase in traffic on Comiston Road. Cycling increased. But councillors voted to rip it out and acknowledged that traffic is expected to return to previous level of 10,000 vehicles a day.

The six-month monitoring report on the #Leith low traffic neighbourhood (#LTN) was published recently. It showed the scheme has been an astonishing success at reducing traffic. So what's next for the Leith LTN? #edinburgh #urbanism

Plans currently being drawn up for option 3 of Greenbank - Meadows Quiet Route, but thankfully council undertook not to remove the modal filters until speed reduction measures installed on Hermitage Drive, Midmar Drive, Braid Road (south) and Braid Avenue

@blackfordsafer1 We need to make sure that the council stick to their promise that the modal filters will not be removed until speed reduction measures are installed on Hermitage Drive, Midmar Drive, Braid Road (south) and Braid Avenue

@MidmarPaddock Not my photo (it was from a local Facebook page) but here’s one of mine from yesterday

@lucynorris1 Spotted at Blackford Pond yesterday!

Heartbreaking scene at Blackford Pond - one lone swan left to grieve her family.

@SW20Ed @cllr_jenkinson But Scott voted in favour of ripping out the Quiet Route in the Braid Estate in full knowledge that traffic is expected to increase by 4,000 vehicles a day

My committees TRO sub-committee has just voted to approve the Corstorphine Connections LTN project with the exception of the controversial Manse Road Bus Gate. I’m satisfied that the right decision was reached today based on evidence, data and listening to local residents.

@lucynorris1 @jennymco @MichaelMacLeod1 Just been to the pond - no sign of the female swan. First time I’ve known Blackford Pond to have no swans.

@SheenaNimmo @jennymco @MichaelMacLeod1 There was no sign of it Monday evening. I hung around a little while and the mother swam from one side of pond to the other alone.

@edinburghpaper Three modal filters in the Braid Estate in South Edinburgh have reduced rat-running traffic by 40% at very little cost and with only 2% increase in traffic on main alternative route. Council wants to remove filters and spend £200-400k building cycle lanes so drivers can return.

Low traffic neighbourhood in North Edinburgh hailed a “massive success” #Echobox=1729014725" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/edinburgh…

@jennymco @MichaelMacLeod1 @lucynorris1 Thank you for update. I spoke to the Countryside Rangers yesterday morning. They were very helpful, but at that point weren’t sure when they would be able to remove the remains. Has the last cygnet definitely gone? It was still there with the remaining swan on Monday morning.

@MichaelMacLeod1 @lucynorris1 Blackford Pond swan update. Pentlands Rangers removed the remains today. Looks like the male. General theories: old age or he was got by dog/fox/otter/fight. Worse case: bird flu, but not many cases locally so far🤞
