Edinburgh village residents fight double yellow lines at 'dangerous' junction

Edinburgh residents fighting to have double yellow lines removed from a village road say they have resulted in motorists driving faster.

Locals in Cramond also accused the council of using the parking restrictions as a "smokescreen" to facilitate the construction of a new care home and said an exit on to the road from the development would not allow drivers sufficient visibility.

The lines were first painted after the care home was granted permission back in 2016, with planners telling developers residents couldn't move in until parking and loading restrictions were fully implemented by the entrance at the junction of Whitehouse Road and School Brae, and at the proposed exit on to Cramond Glebe Road.
