Facilities for Cyclists

Aberdeenshire Council and Stagecoach Bluebird Bus Service are working together to provide a number of free bike bags on Royal Deeside bus services between Braemar and Aberdeen as part of an initial trial throughout the summer of 2011. The bags are heavy-duty polythene bags that will protect the bike and the bus and will be used to store bikes in the boot space.
