Infrastructure
The city is linked internationally by Edinburgh Airport (EDI) which in 2009 saw more than 9 million passengers throughout the year. This makes Edinburgh Airport the sixth busiest in the UK, and in the year ending February 2010, it was the only airport in the top ten to report annual passenger growth. In terms of rail connections, Edinburgh Waverley railway station is the principal mainline station in the city serving over 19.6 million passenger journeys over 2008-2009. A new tram system connecting Edinburgh City Centre with Edinburgh Airport is under construction and scheduled to be in operation by 2014.
