The regulations are for roads being constructed and improved as part of the Forth Replacement Crossing project - Admiralty Interchange to Scotstoun – and allow implementation of:
 
•ï€  Mandatory variable speed limits on the M90 between Admiralty Junction and the new Queensferry Junction to the south of the Queensferry Crossing
 
•ï€  Mandatory variable speed limits on the A90 between the new Queensferry Junction to the south of the Queensferry Crossing and Dalmeny
 
• Mandatory variable speed limits on the northbound M90 from Masterton Junction to the end of the ITS system already in place

• An actively managed hard shoulder on the M90 between Ferrytoll Junction and the new Queensferry Junction, including across the Queensferry Crossing. This will be used by certain buses if the Forth Road Bridge is closed to such vehicles during periods of high winds.
