== Transport == The [[M90 motorway]] and [[A823(M) motorway]] bypass the town which link Rosyth to [[Dunfermline]], [[Perth, Scotland|Perth]], and [[Kinross]] to the north, as well as [[South Queensferry]] and [[Edinburgh]] to the south. The main road going through Rosyth is the [[A985 road]] which links the town with [[Inverkeithing]], [[Dalgety Bay]] to the east as well as the Kincardine Bridge to the west which links the town to [[Falkirk]], [[Stirling]] and [[Glasgow]]. There are plans to build a new "Park and Choose" facility in Rosyth next to [[Rosyth railway station]] which would allow more bus and train connections as well as take pressure off of Halbeath in Dunfermline and Ferrytoll in Inverkeithing's [[Park and ride]] bus stations. It could potentially bring new routes to Rosyth and increase passengers.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2021-04-15 |title=Next scheme arriving could be the park and choose at Rosyth train station |url=https://www.dunfermlinepress.com/news/19234483.rosyth-train-station-park-choose-facility-part-plans-speed-journeys/ |access-date=2024-09-13 |website=Dunfermline Press |language=en}}</ref> === Train Connections === [[File:Fife Transport , Rosyth Railway Station - geograph.org.uk - 4969869.jpg|thumb|Rosyth railway station.|280x280px]] There is one Train Station in Rosyth in the extreme north of the town - [[Rosyth railway station]].
