I assume they dont actually do any actual improvements to the roads , they are disgraceful for a capital city

No! They make the holes bigger, fill them with paper mache, fuck off and then within 2 hours its like driving on a forest road up north.

I'd agree there are many crap roads in Edinburgh, more than other places I regularly travel to in my wee van.

I have to say though that there have been a good few improvements around the city. I know it was a by product of the trams but Easter Road now has an excellent surface. Pavements have also been improved in some streets.

But aye, lots need done.

The only saving grace is normally you aren't going too fast so have a chance to swerve them
