Overgrown hedge/other plants obstructing pavement, 11th May
Overgrown hedge and other plants narrowing footpath forcing mobility scooter users onto the road. Been an issue since at least 2022.
Overgrown evergreen hedge (belonging to 4 North Greens) and trailing plants directly to the East (council land?) is blocking half the northside pavement of The Jewel, near the junction with Duddingston Park South.
Suggest the hedge is cut back to the private owners fence and the trailing plants so they're no longer causing an obstruction.

Big recurring pothole, needs permanent solution, not temporary fixes., 20th April
This pothome is recurring. It has been recurring for years now, the council will fill it with a temporary fix. The issue is that the fix is only temporary and comes undone within 3 months, each time inevitably causing the pothole to increase in size and depth. I've attached a picture using a coke can to help define the depth of the pothole.

4/5 cluster potholes, 20th April
I nearly had a bad accident last night trying to avoid the cluster of potholes at the 1st Newcraighall roundabout (coming from the A1) which are in the middle of the road as you take the exit into Fort Kinnaird at Pets at Home. Given the volume of traffic here, this needs fixed urgently before there is a bad accident.
