A vote was conducted in the Scottish Parliament which agreed to suspend the EARL project. Work completed to date on the design of EARL will be preserved and archived in a manner which does not close down future options.

An proposed airport rail link option was discussed in the debate which preceded the vote, however this will undergo feasibility studies before it is fully presented as an alternative.
