Coronavirus Drive South Over Queensferry Crossing Firth Of Forth Scotland



Tour Scotland Spring travel video of a road trip drive South from Fife, with Scottish music, to cross the Queensferry Crossing the new Forth Road Bridge which spans the Firth of Forth. Never seen the bridge this quiet.( While keeping a Social Distance you can still take a drive for essential visits, during the Coronavirus Pandemic keeping yourself out of close contact with other people, today I was taking a friend to medical appointment in Edinburgh ) The Queensferry Crossing, formerly the Forth Replacement Crossing, is a road bridge built alongside the existing Forth Road Bridge which carries the M90 motorway across the Firth of Forth between Lothian, at South Queensferry, into Fife and onwards to Perthshire, at North Queensferry. The bridge is 683 feet high above high tide, equivalent to approximately 48 London buses stacked on top of each other and 25% higher than existing Forth Road Bridge. It is estimated the construction involved approximately 10 million man hours. The Queensferry Crossing is 33 miles from Perth, Perthshire and 14 miles from Edinburgh
