Episode Details

After two decades of advocacy, the Causey intersection is finally getting its long-overdue makeover—with Phase 1 launching next week. Traffic will reverse, rubber barriers and new signage will reshape the flow, and resident parking will create a protected pedestrian zone. This test run aims to prove the space can thrive as a community hub, not just a congested junction. Backed by the Causey Development Trust and supported by local leaders and residents, the project overcame years of funding delays and bureaucratic hurdles. With approval secured in 2022 and potential funding from Edinburgh’s new Visitor Levy, this temporary transformation is a crucial step toward a permanent, people-first redesign—making the area safer, more walkable, and vibrant for both locals and visitors.
