Edinburgh Seeks Govt Fire Aid | Edinburgh News
Description
Princes Street in Edinburgh remains closed after a major fire on July 9, disrupting 50 bus routes and limiting trams to just the airport to West End stretch—possibly staying shut until August. Local MSP Ben Macpherson has urged the First Minister for emergency Scottish Government aid, citing Glasgow’s post-fire support as a model. He’s calling for help for city council, Lothian Buses, businesses, and the Festivals, especially to boost bus services between Leith and the city center where trams are down. Residents are already lobbying Lothian for extra routes, and the government is now being asked to respond.
