Rejected petition Consider plans for a Perth to Edinburgh train link
Rejected on
The community would gain financially and strengthened by a rail link from edinburgh via dunfermline through kelty, kinross, glenfarg, bridge of earn and through to perth. This would help because it would relieve congestion on the roads, reduce carbon footprint and enhance travel for tourists.
This would also open comunication between cities and encourage new businesses to the areas. The areas i have mentioned are worthy of developments where employment is required. This would also ease the strain on highly populated cities. Thank you for your consideration.
