Episode Details

Edinburgh’s Summerhall junction is getting a cyclist-friendly overhaul with a “two-stage right turn” system designed to make turns safer and smoother—though not everyone’s on board. Cyclists will now move left, wait for a signal, then proceed to a waiting area before completing the turn. The council says it simplifies access to Hope Park Terrace and Melville Drive, echoing a similar setup already in place at McDonald Road since 2017. While some road users joke about extra red lights or question its practicality, others point to successful implementations in Denmark and Melbourne, suggesting it’s just a matter of time for everyone to adapt.
