Mistakes in controversial Edinburgh active travel plans put to the public for feedback were discovered more than three months before city councillors were alerted, it has emerged.
In April the council revealed that "errors" had been made in a consultation on making Spaces for People schemes permanent. The errors means the consultation had to be re-started, at a cost of nearly £20,000.
A freedom of information request has now revealed that transport chiefs had known about the blunder since the start of the year.
