The local Liberal Democrat team have been clear that Transport Scotland needs to consider how the A90 slip road at the roundabout at the Forth Road Bridge can be re-opened.

Since the closure of the slip road and the opening of the new Queensferry Crossing, far more traffic is entering and exiting Queensferry to the east via Dalmeny Station.  This is on roads never designed for this volume of traffic.

It is a problem which risks getting even worse if new housing developments at South Scotstoun and Builyeon Road are approved.

We were delighted to be working closely with Alex Cole-Hamilton MSP on this.  He has now written to Transport Minister, Humza Yousaf, asking him to re-open the South-bound slip to the A90.
