Edinburgh locals objected converting an abandoned grocery shop into a new Italian takeaway over traffic congestion fears.
The City of Edinburgh Council validated the proposal from the developers to create a new restaurant and hot food takeaway at Bridge Road in Colinton.
The proposed takeaway was to replace an old convenience store at 30 to 32 Bridge Road but some of the local community fear there is already enough establishments in the area and anymore will exacerbate traffic congestion and noise pollution.
