Transport Scotland - A702/A703 Hillend study: EIR release

You asked

“I'm e-mailing regarding the A702/A703 Hillend Junction just outside Edinburgh.

It was reported recently in the press that Transport Scotland commissioned a study into safety improvements to be made to this junction after over 5000 conflicts within four days.

I'd appreciate it if Transport Scotland would publish this report in full.

Also, could you provide information on how active travel transport methods were considered in this study and how the recommended options for improvements would accommodate pedestrians and cyclists safely."
