The Forth Road Bridge: Can we fix it? Yes we can! policy briefing

The Scottish Government announced their intention to build a second Forth Road Bridge on 19 December 20071. Friends of the Earth Scotland is concerned at the likely increase in traffic, congestion and greenhouse gas emissions from an additional bridge. The existing Forth Road Bridge can and should be repaired, hence our message: “Can we fix it? Yes we can!” This briefing, prepared for the Transport, Infrastructure and Climate Change Committee meeting of 15 January 2008, sets out our position.
