Planter installed at the junction of Barberton Mains Wynd, Edinburgh, as part of a new council scheme, 'Spaces for People'.See SWNS story SWSCplanter. A planter has been installed in the middle of a busy road junction - leaving residents flabbergasted. The wooden box filled with soil was installed at the junction of Barberton Mains Wynd, Edinburgh, as part of a new council scheme, 'Spaces for People'. Residents fear emergency services could be unable to enter the road, and that the wooden box could block visibility for drivers and lead to a child being knocked down as they left nearby Juniper Green Primary School. The idea of the planter is to keep children travelling to the primary school safe by restricting access at the junction to residents of the street, blue badge holders, school staff, deliveries, waste collection, and emergency services.
