A new cycle lane in the Leith area has been branded 'shambolic' by locals.
The lane, which appeared in recent days, reportedly means cyclists must ride 'into oncoming traffic on a blind bend'. Edinburgh Council have said the change is part of a 'trial', and looks to reduce traffic flow while leading to a 'better, safer and more connected cycling experience'.
The changes on Water Street comes along with bollards appearing in Leith, as the area becomes a Low Traffic Neighbourhood. Bruce Kinnaird Scott, a cyclist who lives in the area, told Edinburgh Live: "As a cyclist, the idea of cycling on cobbles isn't ideal.
