Council roads officials have published plans to create a new dedicated bus bay outside St Margaret’s Primary School on Station Road.

This has followed complaints that the school bus has been unable to park outside the school.  A dedicated bus bay has been requested by the school management and parent council. This will provide a dedicated, enforceable bus waiting and loading space.

A site meeting was held to observe the situation at the end of the school day. The
problem of parent parking affecting the space left for the bus was clearly observed.

It is therefore proposed to provide a dedicated bus stance which shall operate
Mondays to Thursdays (08:15 to 09:15 & 14:15 to 15:30) and Fridays (08:15 to 09:15
and 12:00 to 12:45).

Any comments need to be submitted in writing (by email to trafficorders@edinburgh.gov.uk) with reference TRO/17/19 by 10 November.
