Does anyone know if the east (?) side of the FRB is back open again, or is it still closed to pedestrians/cyclists?

Yip it was still closed but I'm still mystified to why feta think folk have to dismount at the southern end and cross the A90 I use and I assume everybody does, the service road that goes under the bridge. Coming from the north is a bit of a pain coming from Inverkiething if its busy because of the bus lane, you need to navigate across the dominant traffic flow to the centre of the roundabout. A bit like this but its better to make the move earlier if you can.
On the south side of the bridge, the path leading to the west side is actually wider than the one on the east side, and less used by pedestrians.
Unfortunately it doesn't have a little cyclist sign, but in every other respect you may find that it's easier just to ride up to the roundabout on the path, than fanny about going down to sea level on the access road.
Of course this is morally heinous (if the little sign is not present, you're evil), so I could never admit to doing so myself.
Not that I would ever do this myself, but it is easier. The fun part when you are going north is to come down the bus lane from the roundabout and then see how fast you can go between the bollards without hitting them, strangely it is a bus and cycle lane at the top but only a bus lane at the bottom
