Edinburgh Council Help the northbound cycle signal has been uncovered again at the Foot of the Walk. Can this be disconnected rather than poorly covered yet again. The design could easily lead someone to get left hooked. Thanks. Katrina Faccenda Chas Booth 🇪🇺🇺🇦 Cllr Adam Nols-McVey Spokes CycleCampaign

Maybe the ~£1,300 Transport Section75 can go towards that dropkerb marking?
