To ask the Scottish Government, further to the statement by Derek Mackay on 8 December 2015 (Official Report, c. 10), what action it is taking to encourage Stagecoach and ScotRail to work in partnership to deliver integrated public transport solutions for Fife commuters (a) while the Forth Road Bridge is being repaired and (b) after the Forth Road Bridge reopens.

The answer

Stagecoach and Scotrail have been fully involved in the development and implementation of the travel plan to address the needs of the travelling public. As part of our arrangements to develop and monitor the travel plan, all parties including Stagecoach and Scotrail, liaise routinely to monitor the plan and ensure that it best meets the needs of the travelling public.
