Well I'm here at the Forth Bridge. The iconic bridge says so much about Scotland, our heritage, our engineering.
All those that worked on this bridge, it's recognised throughout the world, so important to Scotland as a symbol of our creativity and our engineering.
This structure is one hundred and twenty four years old, it looks fantastic, it really is an absolute iconic structure not only to Scotland but world wide.
Everybody who works on this structure, who travels over this structure is delighted that this structure is going to be put forward for world heritage status.
Well it's really important that we can secure world heritage status for the Forth Bridge. It's recognised internationally, it tells a story of engineering that is world renowned.
Scotland at the moment has five world heritage sites, to have the Forth Bridge as a sixth one and to my mind it would be the jewel in the crown for that.
It's such an iconic structure, wonderful location and the tourism potential, visitor potential for the bridge - absolutely huge.
Well everyone has pulled together; Network Rail, Historic Scotland, The Scottish Government all working in partnership
to make sure we can secure the world heritage site status for the Forth Bridge. It would be fantastic for Scotland but also for the heritage of the world.
