The price hike for drop-off charges at Edinburgh Airport has come under further scrutiny as Lothian MSP Miles Briggs says it is the people waiting for older relatives and disabled people, who need more time, will be the ones really hit by the doubled drop-off charges.
Miles Briggs has written to Michael Matheson to raise his concerns that older and disabled people will be hit by the doubled drop-off charges.
Miles Briggs, Scottish Conservative Lothian MSP, said: “It is clear that the original introduction of this drop-off charge has not achieved the outcome that it said it would.
“People waiting for older relatives and disabled people who need more time will be the ones really hit by the doubled drop-off charge.
“It’s time for Edinburgh Airport to think again.”
They’ll have to think fast – the widely-criticised price hike comes into force today

Charging someone isnt going to put them off it just costs them more. It wont stop congestion. That’s just a lame excuse to make more money
