M8 Westbound Crash Causes Major Delays in Edinburgh

0:00It's March 30th. Welcome to Edinburgh News Today, powered by AI. I'm Corey with the story. A crash shut down part of the M8 Westbound in Edinburgh between Junctions 1 and 2, this Sunday morning around 9.30am on March 29th. Drivers got hit with big warnings right away as emergency services rushed in. The lanes now restricted that way, flipping from a full closure to heavy limits and traffic control folks are pushing everyone to skip it and pick. Another path. Locals are feeling the squeeze with long cues piling up near the spot, throwing off morning commutes and weekend vibes across the area. Traffic Scotland dropped updates on extra travel time and alternate routes, while police and ambulance teams got hit up for details. Haven't spilled yet. Keep dodging that stretch if you're out there and we'll track how it clears up next.
