CAPITAL RAIL ACTION GROUP

CRAG campaigns for better public transport, especially rail and light rail development, in the Edinburgh area. In particular, we have been campaigning for the development of an integrated and sustainable transport strategy for the Edinburgh travel to work area. To achieve this, we believe that the East of Scotland needs its own regional transport authority to co-ordinate and integrate all buses, train and tram services in Edinburgh, the Lothians and south Fife... We also believe that a re-opened station in Portobello linked to the South Suburban Railway, the Borders Railway and to stations on and off the East Coast Main Line such as those to North Berwick and Dunbar as well as to the city centre and the west of the city would transform public transport provision for this vibrant east Edinburgh seaside community.
