Improving Scotlands bus infrastructure and priorty bus lane introduction: EIR release

The first Minister announced in the Programme for Government in September 2019 that £500m would be spent on improving bus infrastructure in the roads around our cities i.e. a key part of which would be priority bus lanes. This could include other high occupancy vehicles too.

Please can you send me the current draft plan as it is, of when you expect the roads around Scotland’s town and cities to have bus priority lanes up and running? Split by road name/number & month of expected opening of bus priority lanes. Specifically, I am interested in when we can expect priority bus lanes to be operating M8 w/b J11–J20.
