Duddingston Park Bus Lane Camera

Posted on: October 29th, 2020
Please see below re the introduction of a Bus Lane camera to Duddingston Park. Communication from the Transport team at City of Edinburgh Council.

Dear Sir/Madam

 

As you may know, the Council is introducing five new bus lane enforcement cameras around Edinburgh. One of these locations is on Duddingston Park, monitoring southbound traffic and is located in advance of the junction with Milton Road, within your Community Council boundary.

 

The camera is expected to go live and begin issuing warning notices from Monday 2 November 2020 for two weeks to motorists who incorrectly drive within the bus lane during operational hours. An extra week will allow additional time for notices to be delivered, before charge notices are expected to be issued from Monday 23 November 2020.

 

There are no changes to the layout or operational times of the bus lane as a result of this project. However, additional yellow warning signs are in place on approach to the camera to inform motorists and further promotional activities are planned, such as on the Council’s website and social media channels. 

 

I would be grateful if you could help inform residents within your area of the new camera being introduced.
