Edinburgh locals have raised their concerns after spotting a new road sign in the middle of a pavement.
Leith has undergone a huge transformation as the tram lines have been installed and new cycle lanes laid down. However, on Great Junction Street, road signs directing traffic have been placed in the middle of the footpath.
Speaking to Edinburgh Live Leith local Kim Reid has warned the road signposts on the busy street are an 'accident waiting to happen' as it leaves little space for people.

She said: "It's an accident waiting to happen. A parent passed yesterday with a double buggy and couldn't get through. The mobility scooters are finding it a nightmare too."
This comes just weeks after Edinburgh Live spoke to Cllr Kayleigh O'Neill who spoke out about the challenges she faces as a wheelchair user when there are obstructions on the pavement such as parked cars, road work signs, and posts.
She explained how it forced her to go onto the road, putting herself in danger.
Taking on a new project, O'Neill has been monitoring the pavements in her ward to see how accessible they are - in particular looking at drop curbs and space on the pavements.
The Scottish Government legislated to ban on pavement parking in October 2019. However, guidance on how local authorities should implement the ban is still being drafted and is expected to be ready by the end of 2023.
A spokesperson for Edinburgh Council said: "We are aware of the situation and are investigating it."
