Future Streets and Circulation Plan for Edinburgh includes a new focus on the Bridges Corridor, Cowgate and Canongate, City Centre, to reduce traffic or pedestrianise areas South of the City.

This is in addition to the 2019 Edinburgh City Centre Transformation (ECCT) proposal – incorporating the Meadows to George Street, George Street, Lothian Road and Old Town Streets projects. There is a separate negotiation with Historic Scotland for the press to no traffic within Holyrood Park.
