Edinburgh police continue crackdown on drivers outside school as more fines issued

Police in the north east of Edinburgh have continued a recent crackdown on drivers outside two schools in the area, with several motorists being given fines.

Last week, officers were present outside St Mary's Primary School in Leith to enforce a pedestrian and cyclist zone. During their visit, 11 drivers were slapped with fines for entering a prohibited zone when the lights on a sign were flashing.

Following this, Edinburgh Live visited St Mary's that day during pick-up time to speak with locals about the crackdown. Many parents were in agreement that police enforcing the zone was a good idea and makes the area safer for children.
