    Surely where the money is coming from is irrelevant if it is being used wastefully!  Wasteful is wastful no matter what the source and, in this case, as a cyclist, I would say they have definitely got it wrong.  Is this a surprise to anyone?

    Actually, for all my arm waving, I'm not opposed to the cycle route being done in Keir street. I've been campaigning about the junction at Keir Street/Melville Place for 2 years now and this project means that the junction will get the attention that it needs. Whether that is paid for from a cycling budget or from wherever, does not really matter.

    We are also getting a mini-roundabout at the junction of Keir Street and Henderson Street, which will calm the traffic coming into the village – something which people have said that they want.
