Yesterday, along with council officers, local residents and two of my ward colleagues, I attended a walkabout round the Pentland area. We undertake these walkabouts round Pentland (also Logie and the Corso/Abbotsford/Blackness area) twice a year to look at any local issues that need attention.
Yesterday there were a number of issues highlighted including :
* The poor condition of some of the steps in the internal paths of the estate and going up to some houses - see above right.
* The variable quality of grass maintenance in the open plan areas of Pentland. I have written to the Environment Department asking for action to improve the situation.
