bus lane for bypass   
I read recently that councillors are planning a bus lane on the bypass. 
Is this going to be an extra lane alongside the two there already or is 
it a completely hairbrained abduction of one of the current lanes?

One of the current lanes I believe.
Just another step towrds becoming a city state.
I will just buy a bus to get round the problem.

From what I gathered from the EEN, it looked like they were planning to use 
the hard shoulder, similar to what they have done on the A90 heading South 
from the bridge.

Plan is to extend the hard sholder round the entire city bypass.  The hard
sholder would then become the bus lane.

At the moment there are no scheduled busses that travel round the bypass,
and only one route is in the planning stage.  This is the one to link St
Johns Hospital and the Royal infirmary.

http://edinburghnews.scotsman.com/index.cfm?id=519632007
  At least 15 new bus lanes and dozens of signal priority schemes for buses
would be installed on some of the city's busiest routes under the plans.

  Dedicated bus lanes and signals that give priority to buses on busy
routes, including Dundas Street, Ferry Road and Inverleith Row, would cost
nearly £60m under the plans.

  An ambitious £100m scheme to create bus lanes on the city bypass

  Bruce Young, Lothian co-ordinator for the Association of British Drivers,
commented: "The obvious intention is to squeeze drivers off the road and it
is not fair."

Great, another stretch of road to lie empty while cars and lorries queue 
nose to tail in the other two lanes.

Aren't hard shoulders there for at least partly for safety, so 
emergency vehicles can get to people?  (not that I want to support the 
car cult people).

Seton East farm shop outside Port Seton - just before the wee dual 
carriageway that connects Prestonpans to Longniddry. I buy all my veg 
there, they sell some really good local produce. At the right time of 
year, the East Lothian carrots are magic.

Knowes just outside East Linton on the 'old' A1. Plus, you get to drive 
around East Lothian, always a good thing. If you do try all the side roads, 
there are signs now and again about fresh veg, eggs fruit etc.and less smog.

Of course there is always the good old Farmer's Market in Castle 
Terrace. It's somewhat diminished recently due to the paving slabs in 
the street getting changed and some trees uprooted, but it's still there 
selling bread for about £2 a loaf and fish for something close to twice 
the usual price.

The big pity is that the Arbroath Smokies people are no longer in 
attendance due to some mealy-mouthed tossrag complaioning about the 
smell - as if the smell of exhaust fumes and Jimmy Chungs are better.

And you can sample the fine wares of the Black Isle Brewery, where they

Seton East farm shop outside Port Seton - just before the wee dual 
carriageway that connects Prestonpans to Longniddry. I buy all my veg 
there, they sell some really good local produce. At the right time of 
year, the East Lothian carrots are magic.

Knowes just outside East Linton on the 'old' A1. Plus, you get to drive 
around East Lothian, always a good thing. If you do try all the side roads, 
there are signs now and again about fresh veg, eggs fruit etc.and less smog.

Of course there is always the good old Farmer's Market in Castle 
Terrace. It's somewhat diminished recently due to the paving slabs in 
the street getting changed and some trees uprooted, but it's still there 
selling bread for about £2 a loaf and fish for something close to twice 
the usual price.

The big pity is that the Arbroath Smokies people are no longer in 
attendance due to some mealy-mouthed tossrag complaioning about the 
smell - as if the smell of exhaust fumes and Jimmy Chungs are better.

Knowes just outside East Linton on the 'old' A1. Plus, you get to drive 
around East Lothian, always a good thing. If you do try all the side roads, 
there are signs now and again about fresh veg, eggs fruit etc.and less smog.

Of course there is always the good old Farmer's Market in Castle 
Terrace. It's somewhat diminished recently due to the paving slabs in 
the street getting changed and some trees uprooted, but it's still there 
selling bread for about £2 a loaf and fish for something close to twice 
the usual price.

The big pity is that the Arbroath Smokies people are no longer in 
attendance due to some mealy-mouthed tossrag complaioning about the 
smell - as if the smell of exhaust fumes and Jimmy Chungs are better.

Of course there is always the good old Farmer's Market in Castle 
Terrace. It's somewhat diminished recently due to the paving slabs in 
the street getting changed and some trees uprooted, but it's still there 
selling bread for about £2 a loaf and fish for something close to twice

The big pity is that the Arbroath Smokies people are no longer in

Of course there is always the good old Farmer's Market in Castle 
Terrace. It's somewhat diminished recently due to the paving slabs in 
the street getting changed and some trees uprooted, but it's still there 
selling bread for about £2 a loaf and fish for something close to twice

The big pity is that the Arbroath Smokies people are no longer in

On the other hand you can get excellent sausages much cheaper than the 
supermarkets.

And you can sample the fine wares of the Black Isle Brewery, where they 
take the purest water, the finest hops, the richest malt...and then run 
it all through a sheep.

Of course there is always the good old Farmer's Market in Castle 
Terrace. It's somewhat diminished recently due to the paving slabs in 
the street getting changed and some trees uprooted, but it's still there 
selling bread for about £2 a loaf and fish for something close to twice 
the usual price.

The big pity is that the Arbroath Smokies people are no longer in 
attendance due to some mealy-mouthed tossrag complaioning about the 
smell - as if the smell of exhaust fumes and Jimmy Chungs are better.

Of course there is always the good old Farmer's Market in Castle 
Terrace. It's somewhat diminished recently due to the paving slabs in 
the street getting changed and some trees uprooted, but it's still there 
selling bread for about £2 a loaf and fish for something close to twice 
the usual price.

The big pity is that the Arbroath Smokies people are no longer in 
attendance due to some mealy-mouthed tossrag complaioning about the 
smell - as if the smell of exhaust fumes and Jimmy Chungs are better.
