Edinburgh South Suburban Railway is a campaign group run mostly on Twitter and which has one aim to reopen the railway line to passengers within the city, taking cars off the streets and providing another means of public transport.
The group would like you to support their cause by responding to the online consultation on the Strategic Transport Projects Review (STPR2) for Scotland which ends at midnight on 15 April 2022. We asked them to explain their campaign and what they do.
