As you know, I work closely with residents and community groups in my constituency, and the condition of roads and footpaths is something which is regularly raised in my conversations with them.

I was pleased to hear that that two roads in my constituency were given priority for attention at a recent meeting of the South Central Neighbourhood Partnership. East Mayfield and the pavement of Colinton Road have been selected for resurfacing, and work on these is due to begin during the 2014/15 financial year.

This is a matter which I have been pushing for a long time and I am pleased that the Council are choosing to prioritise these streets. However, I am sure you are all aware of other roads throughout South Edinburgh which are in desperate need of resurfacing, so please do get in touch to identify any problem roads in your area.
