Edinburgh lets you report a few different road-related problems, not just potholes. The main options shown in the council’s reporting pages are roads/pavements, gully/drainage issues, road signs, traffic signals, and street lights.
| Problem type | What you can report | How to report |
|---|---|---|
| Road or pavement problem | Roads, potholes, pavements, cycle lanes, and street furniture, including bus shelters | Report a road or pavement problem |
| Gully problem | Blocked gullies, also called road drains or sievers | Report a gully problem |
| Road sign problem | Faults with road signs | Report a road sign problem |
| Traffic signal problem | Faults with temporary traffic lights at roadworks | Report a problem with a traffic signal |
| Street light problem | Problems with street lighting | Report a street light problem |
If it’s an immediate danger to safety, Edinburgh asks you to use the emergency phone numbers shown on the relevant page rather than the online form.
