Princes Street traffic

Now that cars are banned from using Princes Street (in both directions) from 7am until 8pm each day, people are complaining about dangerously speeding buses, according to a report by Angie Brown in the Scotsman.

While I’d personally like to see a one-way circle system using Princes Street and Queen Street together with extensive car-free zoning, I doubt if piecemeal alterations to Edinburgh’s traffic system can ever be successful. We need a comprehensive transport plan that takes into account commercial, environmental and heritage factors, transportation needs and traffic flows.
