Most of Edinburgh's bus lanes currently apply at peak hours only, but the council is to trial 7-7-7 operation - from 7am to 7pm, seven days a week - in a bid to cut bus journey times. The trial will be on the No 44 route from Juniper Green to Musselburgh and if it is successful, bus lanes across the city are expected to become 7-7-7. That would almost certainly spark protests from motorists about it leading to more congestion for them.
