Safety bollards need to be installed along the length of Leith Walk as a matter of urgency, a city councillor has warned, as she is "genuinely concerned there is going to be a fatality".
Susan Rae said 'rampant' pavement parking and drivers ignoring the 'no left turn' onto London Road was increasingly putting pedestrians at risk of injury or even death.
The Scottish Greens councillor, who represents Leith Walk in the City Chambers, said after previously being "reluctant" to back the introduction of bollards on the street she now believes they are the only way to "force a shift in behaviour".
