## Resource

The city’s push for a second tram line hits a major snag: 68% of locals oppose using the beloved Roseburn Path. Beyond the route debate, critics question the need for the costly project—especially with no Scottish Government funding. Supporters argue it’s vital for future growth, while skeptics push for greener, less disruptive alternatives like electric buses. With organized opposition and a looming bus shortfall if trams are scrapped, the decision remains undecided—but the conversation is heating up.
