Flying The Flags.


"ONE OF Scotland’s most iconic emblems, the Forth Road Bridge, is flying the flag for the nation on St Andrew’s Day. The Forth Road Bridge will celebrate by flying two giant saltires from the tops of its towers. The specially-produced 15-foot flags, flying over 500 feet above the Firth of Forth, should be visible for several miles on either shore. This is the first time in more than five years that flags of any kind have been flown from the bridge, which is managed by the Forth Estuary Transport Authority."

All the best for St Andrew's Day when it comes.
