More than 60 worksites across Scotland, including the Scottish Association for Marine Science (SAMS) in Dunbeg, have been awarded £600,000 funding to promote cycling as a healthy way to travel to work.
As a result, some 52,000 employees, including those at the National Library of Scotland, Glasgow Airport, NHS Highlands and Scouts Scotland, can now look forward to a range of funded initiatives including showers, repair stations, Dr Bike maintenance sessions, hairdryers and safe cycle parking.
Dr Tom Wilding, from SAMS, said:‘As a keen cyclist and environmental researcher, I am thrilled that Cycling Scotland will be helping us make much-needed improvements to the facilities for our cycling community.
