Streets to get new speed-sensitive signs
Vehicle-activated signs that clock drivers’ speeds and tell them to slow down are to be introduced on Lasswade Road, Lanark Road West and two locations on Duddingston Road West.
Each site is expected to get two signs, at a cost of around £5000. Funds will come from the council’s road safety budget for 2012/13.
