Happy Easter Weekend from everyone at Tactran!

Our strategy officer Merry is no stranger to sitting in school-run traffic. She and her son have made a game of trying to walk to school in less time than it takes to drive!
With new school zone restrictions, it may be time to consider if you could save time and walk instead! 👟
As the year comes to a close we would like to extend our warmest wishes to the whole Tactran community. We hope you have a wonderful festive season and wish everyone the best for the year ahead. Merry Christmas! 🎄

Works on the new bridge over the Dighty Burn and nearby paths are complete! Tactran is delighted to have supported this project with funding. The reopening means that people can enjoy a wide, fully lit & accessible route from Monifieth to Broughty Ferry.

Did you know that Angus, Perth & Kinross, and Stirling all have higher transport CO2 emissions per head than the Scottish average?
To meet national targets of reducing emissions by 56% by 2030, our new regional transport strategy has outlined these goals

How we get around the region has an impact on everyone. This strategy aims to make sure that transport is accessible, that we are contributing to net zero, and makes sure this is done fairly.
Consultation is open until 27th October, share your thoughts

Travelling this weekend to/from the Central Belt? We're expecting trains to be very busy as the Edinburgh Fringe and @CyclingWorlds kick off, as well as @Scotlandteam taking on France at @MurrayfieldStad this Saturday.
Allow some extra time for travel.
