@HarryHamishGray I am a cyclist and was caught out by a similar situation recently. Unfortunately, in this situation, you must give way to the car. It is well ahead of you when it signals to make a left turn.

@BordersBuses how can I check in advance if an X62 is a bike bus?

[Alasdair Sutherland @Inverdair]

@AndyRTodd Not sure, but the cool kidz certainly don't...

Congratulations to the eight new solicitor advocates introduced to Court today! 👏👏👏 The ceremony took place virtually for the first time this year, following which the new solicitor advocates met the Lord President. Well done to all on your achievement! https://t.co/8x0kwOkzws

@forestryls @dmbins When did the consultations take place?

[Alasdair Sutherland @Inverdair]

@PPaulCharles @ThePCAgency @transportgovuk @FCDOtravelGovUK @TelegraphTravel @timestravel @BBCNews @SkyNews @AudienceNet Just back from Italy. Easy to see why their rate has levelled off. Very good compliance from the public with Covid measures. (c.f. UK...)

[Alasdair Sutherland @Inverdair]

Very cool.

The Policy Team will not be hosting any public events for the Proposed Local Development Plan. We have created a virtual ‘drop-in’ portal that has links to settlement posters, short films, Proposed Plan and ‘live chat’. Please visit https://t.co/b0H1CxQq5Q

Really interesting update from @happyplanner01 and @RTPIScotland about the positive response from planning in Scotland to the Covid-19 challenge.

[Alasdair Sutherland @Inverdair]

@FieldDuncan For single flavour, I would be inclined to agree; otherwise, honey and ginger...

Is there a kid's bike attachment?...

[HeadsofPlanningScot @HeadsofPlanning]

Our Executive Committee this morning is discussing a range of items on Planning Procedures & #Covid19 , Communications, NPF4, Housing Technical Paper & updates across different areas/groups. A very busy time for @HeadsofPlanning

[Alasdair Sutherland @Inverdair]

@HeadsofPlanning Explanation on duration is incorrect? If expiry date falls within the 6-month emergency period it is not extended by 12 months. The 12 month "extended period" starts when the Act comes into force, so will end at the start of April 2021, regardless of consent's expiry date.

[Alasdair Sutherland @Inverdair]

Duration of planning permission for PPiP and detailed consents to be extended by 12 months during an initial 6 month "emergency period". https://t.co/3xEE3j7FG8 #planning #covid19

@sricketts1 Helpful blog - thanks, Simon. Interestingly, in Scotland power to hold meeting virtually already exists in the 2003 Act https://t.co/BYDejKCP8q

[Scot Gov Planning @ScotGovPlanning]

Good progress made this week towards temp solutions for planning system continuity. Vital that planning does all it can to support economic recovery. We’re really grateful for the committed and helpful cross-sector working. Thanks everyone! We’ll set out some ways ahead very soon
