Edinburgh mum in one woman campaign to get potholes filled on crumbling streets

An Edinburgh woman is leading a fightback against potholes that are plaguing road users across the capital.

Nicola, resident of Roseburn, grew up in the city and moved back in 2018 only to be shocked at the state of the streets. She told Edinburgh Live how she reports two potholes a day while walking her two dogs Hebe and Scout.

She flags any holes she sees on Twitter, tagging in the City of Edinburgh Council, to spread awareness of the dangers of the craters and get them sorted. Edinburgh Live met with Nicola at a scarred and punctured roundabout where Balgreen Road and St Stevenson Drive meet.
