Phone Boxes, Litter again and Pennycook Lane

You'll recall that last month I raised concerns with BT about the condition of the phone box in Milnbank Road (see http://frasermacpherson.blogspot.com/2006/09/fords-lane-good-news-telephone-box.html) - I have e-mailed them again about this and at the same time have raised residents' concerns about the graffiti on the phone box in Magdalen Place - see below.
The Courier contacted me earlier in the week about the litter issue in Perth Road (see http://frasermacpherson.blogspot.com/2006/10/litter-in-perth-road.html) - and note the issue is reported in today's edition.
Lastly, following residents' concerns about the lack of a handrail in Pennycook Lane (east side next to sheltered housing) I have raised this with the City Council's Planning & Transportation Department. Following my request, a similar handrail in nearby Ford's Lane has been welcomed by residents and a handrail in Pennycook Lane would make a difference in the icy weather.
