The Council's Transport and Environment committee has agreed the list of roads and pavements which will be resurfaced or repaired this year.

Local Lib Dem councillor Robert Aldridge said, "The single biggest issue residents raise with us is the state of Edinburgh's roads. That's why Lib Dem councillors have consistently pushed for more funding to improve the quality of roads across the city.

"Our budget last year saw an extra £11 million spent on road repairs last year, and this year we secured £12.5 million extra. This means that this year, twice as many roads will be attended to than was originally planned."

In the Drum Brae/Gyle ward, the following roads will have work undertaken; Alan Breck Gardens, Barntongate Avenue, Clermiston Drive, Clermiston Road North, Craigmount Avenue, Craigmount Avenue North, Glasgow Road, Glenure Loan, North Bughtlin Road, North Gyle Loan, Parkgrove Crescent, Parkgrove Terrace and Rannoch Road. 

Also, pavements and footways on the following roads will also receive work; Balfron Loan, Clermiston Hill, Clerwood Row, Fauldburn Park and Glenure Loan.

Local Lib Dem councillor Ed Thornley added, "We know this is a drop in the ocean compared to what's needed, but hopefully we can start moving things in the right direction. There are several roads we have been pushing for repairs on which have not been included, like Craigs Road, Craigmount Grove North or Parkgrove Drive, so we will keep up the pressure to get proper repairs done on these roads too."
