Edinburgh Festival Special

BBC Radio Scotland - Mornings, Edinburgh Festival Special

Stephen Jardine live from the Edinburgh Festival asks: 'Do you want more car free zones?'.

Live from the Edinburgh Festivals, Stephen Jardine asks whether you want more car free zones in your area and brings you the agenda setters from the Festival city.

QUESTION OF THE DAY: Car Free Zones
Edinburgh is set to introduce city centre car free zones on the first Sunday of the month. The pilot project will see key roads closed to traffic from 10am - 5pm. Would like to see pedestrian free zones introduced in your local area?
