East Lothian Expands School Street Plan | Edinburgh News
Description
East Lothian Council is pushing forward with a bold new plan to transform Mill Wynd into a safer, car-free zone during school and sports hours—extending double yellow lines over 640 meters to stop indiscriminate parking that’s blocking visibility and risking safety. This follows their pioneering 2014 school street ban around Haddington’s primary schools, which remains active. While the move aims to boost safety, it’s sparking debate—especially as the council also explores wider parking controls for town center, including meters and permits, which local businesses fear could hurt trade. Public feedback is now open until next week via the East Lothian Consultation Hub.
