THE clearest impression yet of what trams in Edinburgh will look like is shown in a new film produced by the developers.

The two-minute production by TIE, formerly known as Transport Initiatives Edinburgh, shows the single-deck vehicles as they may look when they move through the city in three years' time.

An 11-mile line will link Edinburgh airport with Newhaven, along with an expected spur between Roseburn and Granton if available funding for the £585 million scheme allows.

Trams in Lothian Buses-style red and white livery are shown passing landmarks such as Princes Street, Murrayfield stadium and Ocean Terminal.

There is also footage from York Place and Shandwick Place in the city centre, Constitution Street in Leith and in Bankhead, Edinburgh Park and Saughton.
