Pot Holes, 9th April
There's a number of pot holes here on the approach to the roundabout going northbound. They've been here for a couple of months and are getting worse. The position of them is making cars swerve to avoid them which is unsafe in itself.

Easthouses road could benefit with some 30mph signage, 31st March
When Easthouses Road was re-classified as a 30 zone, they removed the old 40 mph signs from the lamposts, but didn't replace them with 30's. Instead going for painted 30s on the road. As much as the painted 30 on the road should imply the speed limit is 30, often its ignored and the straight section of the road is used as a high-speed road (60+), especially by motorcyclists and those with modified vehicles speeding down the road to the junction at Lauder Road.
As much as a 30 sign might not stop the speeders on this road, it gives them little excuse if they're ever caught exceeding the residential speed limits.

Working van obstructing visibility crossing, 6th March
Somebody in my local area keeps parking a large working van just before a pedestrian crossing and road narrowing, that makes it really dangerous to cross the road because you can't see who's coming. It's been like that for years and you can even see it from google maps! I am not even sure people can leave working van parked like that...

Report on FixMyStreet
Very narrow lanes, 24th February
The new road markings since this junction has been resurfaced are likely to cause problems at busy times.. heading to Dalkeith the lanes are so narrow that it’s forcing traffic turning right to the A68 onto the wrong side of the road into oncoming traffic.. the lane heading to Easthouses is huge & disproportionate for one lane of traffic.

This bus stop has a side panel completely knocked out of it. The remnants are in the nearby grass verge.
Its unclear if the damage is vandalism, or storm damage.
But, there is also the beginnings of graffiti present on the remaining perspex panels.
I don't have photos as this was noticed in the early morning and it was too dark to document it.
