I see there are signs up saying that Brunstane Road will be closed for four weeks - does anyone know why this is?

I believe we've not had roadworks for at least a month, so it's to keep Portobello in line with council policy.

Its not really closed - signs have been up to a while yet you can still get through.

As I discovered tonight - as a pedestrian you have to walk on the road as the pavement is dug up - but the cars are still using it as a rat run. Not easy when trying to negotiate your way along it with a smal child and ars@h@@e drivers speeding down it.

I've not been up or down Brunstane Rd between 0830 and 1730 to see if it's true, but that's when it is closed according to a hard written note on the road closed sign.

It's a through road.
