'Dark side of moon' road fixed
REPAIRS being carried out to fix a road labelled "the dark side of the moon" because it had so many potholes have been completed ahead of schedule.
A half-mile stretch of the B800 into Kirkliston closed at the start of the month after the recent cold snap led to an increase in the number of defects.
The work had been expected to take up to six weeks, but has now been completed.
