New Transport Hub Brings Economic Opportunities

The new transport hub is based on the outskirts of Edinburgh near Gogar roundabout on the A8. It is being called The Edinburgh Gateway Interchange. It has been designed to bring together a convenient way of travelling into the city from the North. This means passengers coming into the city will be able to easily link with the tram network and Edinburgh Airport. There is even a combined train and tram ticket to help make transfer even easier and quicker.

This is good news for the people of Scotland on many levels. The improved mobility of people in and out of the economic centre of the country will create employment opportunities and access to talent that before did not come into the city for work. The new station will also link to the Gyle Shopping Centre. These improved connections in and around the city will surely stimulate the local economy. These are really positive developments for Scotland.

Better Value for Money Arriving on the First Train

The benefit of this new interchange just outside the city does not only hold promise for improved work opportunities. It will also open up access to property for sale outside the city. Usually, property for sale outside Edinburgh is cheaper and your pound will go further. If you live within the city but want to move out to the countryside but still need access to the city for employment and social activities, this new transport hub is exciting indeed. In fact this project is part of larger scheme to improve the transport arrangements across central Scotland.
