@MalcolmCombe Great times!! 20,000 there tonight!

Our ongoing @ScotRail pilot means that off-peak tickets are valid all day, every day.

As we monitor the trial, we want to know about your experiences – whether you use the train or not.

Have your say - complete our survey before 22 July ➡️ https://t.co/vhweSSyplD

The Trossachs Explorer is a great way to experience the Trossachs without a car, but did you know you can also connect to thus pilot service from other existing bus routes, including from Glasgow, Stirling and Killin, making it possible to plan a door-to-door car-free journey 🧵

[Loch Lomond & The Trossachs @lomondtrossachs]

If you're under 22 or over 60, hop on The Trossachs Explorer for free with your National Entitlement Card!

With connecting services from Glasgow and Stirling, this is a great, car-free way to explore some iconic locations in the National Park, like Ben A'an and Loch Katrine.

[Loch Lomond & The Trossachs @lomondtrossachs]

Do you have the skills and experience to lead on complex Nature and Land Use projects?

We have a full time, 1 year (fixed term) role for an experienced Project Management Advisor to support on Nature and Land Use projects, and the development of project management processes.🧵

[Loch Lomond & The Trossachs @lomondtrossachs]

Great to see this route return to service, and it connects with our new Trossachs Explorer service!

Looking forward to working together with Stirling Council to improve car-free access to the Trossachs and helping residents and visitors make more sustainable travel choices.

[Stirling Council @StirlingCouncil]

🚌✅The C60 bus will return to service from Mon (1 Jul) for residents and visitors between #Callander and #Killin.

An initial two-year in-house pilot by Stirling Council will replace the service previously provided by local operator Kingshouse Travel.
