SMALL STEP IN RIGHT DIRECTION

Submitted by Editor on

Sometimes, when we or our readers get up a head of steam and complain about something, nothing gets done. 

Other times, something gets done but only very very slowly. 

And then, once in a blue moon, something gets sorted almost before the telephone has cooled down. 

That’s what’s happened this time, following Spurtle team member Tim Smith’s report to the Council about  a kerbside multiple trip-hazard on Hopetoun Street (see below).

He called it in on 23 October.

He noticed it had been fixed on 22 December.

We’re not sure when the work was completed, but we’re pleased it’s been done and are not about to quibble.

Never look a gift pavement in the mouth.

Thank you, City of Edinburgh Council.
