- cater for all ages and abilities and have space for the travelling publics luggage and possessions.

- consider size of buses to ensure they can manoeuvre the roads around the railway station.

- ways of minimising the environmental impact also need to be understood and we would welcome input from organisations who have proven practical solutions they can tell CalMac about.
