Looks like a Scottish Govt budget might be settled, scale of cuts across local authorities increasingly evident, further cuts in road maintenance will not only increase public concern, generate more tyre and suspension damage, it will cause an increase in road casualties.

Our gritters were dispatched at 05.30 - here are the routes we're treating this morning. It can take a couple of hours for some of these roads to be completed and there may be some icy stretches, so please drive carefully.

Delighted to host Trondelag County Council in Hamilton today. Good discussion and a lot of common issues. Norwegian model for buses particularly interesting given current Transport Bill debate.

Good evidence session on the Transport Bill @ScotParl today. Level of engagement and challenge from the Committee was impressive. Good to be involved, with partners, and expect to see the proposals evolve.

Looking forward to providing evidence to @ScotParl tomorrow on the proposed Transport Bill. Level of ambition on buses and practicalities of pavement parking ban will likely be areas explored.
