Episode Details

Edinburgh’s traffic nightmare is about to get worse as Princes Street shuts down, foreshadowing a radical, divisive city mobility plan that’s turning heads—and heads are spinning. The council’s “to, not through” strategy forces commuters to transfer buses miles away, risking chaos during festival season. Plans include a tram-only Princes Street and pedestrian-only George Street, aiming to push cars out—but critics warn it’ll cripple resilience and bus reliability. Lothian Buses says the plan could wreck cross-city travel, making journeys longer while ignoring the real needs of everyday riders. Time to rethink before this vision turns commuting into a circus.
