The Edinburgh trams are a convenient way to travel the city, with a tram line running around 9 miles from York Place to Edinburgh Airport. If you have a ridacard or a day ticket for Lothian buses, this can also be used for travel on the trams. When travelling from Leith to the centre of Edinburgh, buses are more commonly used, however a new project is underway to extend the tramlines to Newhaven. While residents aren’t too happy about the noise and disruption of the work taking place, it’s sure to be a useful and convenient way to travel when it’s finished.
