Scottish Road Reports | Road Safety Sites

If you've ventured into Edinburgh by motorbike over the past year or so, you will know that riding around the capital is quite a challenge. Due to the installation of the city's new tram system, and associated roadworks, the city centre road layout changes on an almost weekly basis.

Currently Princes Street is closed to all traffic. This means that east and west-bound diversion routes are in operation for all vehicles. For the latest information regarding diversion routes in Edinburgh city centre please visit www.edinburghtrams.com/

The links on this page are for various Scottish travel, traffic and roadwork web sites which will provide you with more information on the current situation of the roads around Scotland.
