Edinburgh Airport tram stop approved
19.03.11
Councillors failed with a move to block a controversial tram stop and ticket office at Edinburgh Airport, the Evening News reports. Tram firm TIE received the go-ahead for its proposals, despite concerns the tram stop is not fully enclosed, leaving passengers open to the elements.
Councillors Stuart McIvor and Lesley Hinds had both called for a decision to be delayed in order to allow comment from the city's design champion, Ricardo Marini. But this request was defeated eight to four by a motion from planning leader Jim Lowrie to give the plans the go-ahead.
