Summary

Edinburghs Green councillors are fighting to save road filters on the Braid estate from being removed due to wording errors in a traffic order. The TRO sub-committee decided that trial filters on Cluny Drive, Hermitage Gardens, and Canaan Lane cannot become permanent. However, councillors are urging the full committee to rewrite the orders legally to prioritize road safety over bureaucracy. One filter on Braid Road remains, and other Quiet Route tweaks were approved to stay. The situation has sparked major backlash as one of the most popular Spaces for People setups from the Covid days, aimed at calming traffic for safer streets.
