Clydesdale MSP Mairi McAllan has welcomed the announcement of free bus travel for young constituents being introduced at the start of next year.
The SNP politician reckons the move to allow people under the age of 22 to travel freely is a huge boost to more remote villages in the local area and will allow better opportunities for work and education.
