In December, we carried out a survey of houses in the Dalmeny Park housing estate .  This was in response to concerns raised by many residents about the the traffic problems being seen.

Part of this was provoked by the recent closure of Hewlett Way which changed the flow of vehicles through the new development. However, the opening of the road at Sandercombe Drive/Bourdock Road (so you can get all the way to Dalmeny Station) has clearly made the local area more attractive for through traffic to and from Scotstoun Avenue.

To our mind, the root cause of these issues is the new Queensferry Crossing and the closure of the A90 slip road from the old Forth Road Bridge roundabout. This has resulted in many more cars entering and exiting Queensferry to the east via Dalmeny Station.

The key question is what can be done to try and address the problem. That is why we are keen to hear what local people thought.

We received well over 100 responses which we are now collating and analysing.  We will be publishing the results along with our follow up actions in the next few weeks.
