## Resource

Princes Street in Edinburgh is fully shut down after a fire at the old Debenhams building, with no clear reopening date as safety checks drag on. With buses rerouted through George Street — already strained by the “Summertime Streets” program — the Edinburgh Bus Users’ Group is sounding the alarm, demanding urgent fixes like temporary bus lanes, parking bans, and signal upgrades to keep the city’s lifeline moving during peak summer travel.
