Slip Roads Reopened to Ease Traffic Crisis | Edinburgh News

Published 1 week, 6 days ago
Description

Alex Cole-Hamilton is fighting to reopen slip roads near the Forth Road Bridge, arguing that closing them to private cars in 2017 has caused gridlock and safety hazards in South Queensferry. With the Queensferry Crossing now open, traffic is funneled onto narrow local roads, worsening with a new housing development on the horizon. Residents are fed up with congestion and danger near a new school, while Transport Scotland defends the public transport-only policy as efficient. Cole-Hamilton is demanding urgent action from the Transport Secretary to restore vital traffic flow.
