why would the university of Leeds and Glasgow be interested in spending £xx on doing a survey of how the Forth Road Bridge closure has affected the people of Fife. or have they just targeted a specific area and even if they have the cost is still outwith a university's budget. so one question is who has footed the bill for the survey. the other question is how they have managed to get this survey out so quick.

the implementation of the diversion route's also makes me wonder. its all far to organised to be a spur of the moment thing. this fiasco has been planned and the public has not been notified before the closure.

It was so nice getting back on the bike to commute, the train was driving me mad. Seems they took advantage of the closure to crack on with changing the road system as well.
