Posters set to fill a gap

A NEW official flyposting area could be created at a gap site on Leith Walk.

City Centre Posters - which ran official flyposting sites in the city centre during the festivals - has applied to set up a new site at Shrub Place.

Under the plans, ten advertising boards would be erected around the perimeter of the site.

City leaders claimed that the festival pilot helped save the city 100,000 that it would have had to spend clearing up unofficial posters.
