Just before Christmas, we carried out an extensive survey of residents living in the Dalmeny Park development.  This followed serious concerns about the volume of traffic now passing through the estate as a direct result of the Queensferry Crossing opening and the new roads layout.

We got almost 200 responses which really underlines the strong views which exist. Over 80% of respondents said there was a problem with traffic.

We asked about the suggestion made to us that the road exiting the estate to the north via Dalmeny Station could be closed off to prevent through traffic.  However, 64% of respondents said they were opposed to this suggestion, with only 35% in favour.

79% were in favour of the installation of new safety posts at the corners of roads to prevent cars from coming onto the pavements.  89% agreed that re-opening the A90 slip road at the old Forth Road Bridge roundabout would make a difference.

We will continue to push for the re-opening of the A90 slip road, the Scotstoun Avenue traffic calming and pursue the idea of new safety posts.  We will be working to keep the residents at Dalmeny Park informed.
