News from Transport Scotland’s Scottish Freight & Logistics Advisory Group (ScotFLAG)

If rural freight is important to you, your business or community you are encouraged to take part in a short online survey.

Transport Scotland’s Scottish Freight & Logistics Advisory Group (ScotFLAG) has set up a rural subgroup to review the degree to which the current, mainland transport infrastructure meets the freight transport needs of rural business and industry. The group wants to understand the freight transport challenges and identify what can be done to support rural business and industry in meeting these challenges.

They hope to feedback the evidence gathered into the review of the National Transport Strategy which is currently underway.

The group has representatives from rural sectors including whisky, farming, forestry, estate management and minerals. The road haulage sector are key partners and the group is consulting with various other sectors and road-using groups.

The ScotFLAG rural subgroup is still at the information-gathering stage and would welcome your thoughts and experience. So, if rural freight is important to you, your business or your community please take five minutes to complete their short survey.
