Show Notes
Anas Sarwar proposes a £350 million Potholes Fund, aiming to fix nearly 5 million potholes in Scotland. However, cycle campaigners criticize the plan, arguing it would cut active travel funding by nearly 50%, potentially harming health, increasing pollution, and worsening congestion. Edinburgh Labour councillor Stephen Jenkinson supports the proposal, while Edinburgh Greens express concern over the impact on vulnerable road users.
