The route between Fife and Edinburgh has really improved over the last
10 years.

It used to be you had to come off the A92 at Dunfermine to get on the
M9.  You then needed to pay at the tolls going south and then the
A8000.  Then you had to go round newbridge roundabout or through
Kirkliston if going to Livi (I found this was often quicker than the
M8 to Livi).

They then ruined it by putting those traffic lights after the bridge
and at Tesco's which seemed to make the queues at the bridge worse
than ever IMO.

Now it's pretty much straight through.  Hopefully will make a big
difference.

I'd rather see money spend on roads (which I will use) as opposed to
trains (which I won't).
