has anyone in/ around Edinburgh noticed that they've started the next wave of 20mph limits?!?!? Just been on holiday for a week and before I went started to notice 20mph markings on the road....... last night on way home from holiday noticed loads of 20mph signs up all around the stockbridge area.

passed Edinburgh academy theres some lamp posts with 30mph on one side of the road and 20mph on the other.

I need to pay more attention to them, but so far I think they cover from almost craigleith (sainsburys/ retail park) all the way into town! gonna be a nightmare driving through town now, when its busy your lucky if you move at 10mph but when its empty its gonna be ridiculous driving some of these roads at 20mph!

nah not seen any police with speed traps or watching traffic on my route in the mornings or night. I'm finding it very hard to stick to the 20mph limit in/ through stockbridge area, during peak times its usually just stop/start/ watch out for people pulling out spaces/ crossing the road..... but now adding in trying to make sure I'm only at 20mph is just another distraction
