The latest on the seemingly interminable river path closures, courtesy of the Water of Leith Conservation Trust:

• The section between Wester Coates (Haymarket steps) and Belford Bridge (Brittania Hotel) should reopen in mid May: they’re replacing the old wooden ramp at the bottom of the Haymarket steps.
• No news on the landslip between Damside and Belford Bridge: the Council remain tight-lipped due to ongoing legal proceedings.
