Police Scotland Day 263 - launch of Safe Zone

A bus service with a difference is to take to the roads of two Scottish cities with the aim of helping vulnerable members of the public.

The Safe Zone buses - providing modern and comprehensive first aid/medical facilities and safe havens created to meet the needs of people who are out in city centres - will become a familiar sight on the streets of Edinburgh and Dundee. One of the buses already operates in Glasgow.

The new buses in Edinburgh and Dundee will become operational from tomorrow night (Dec 20) - traditionally one of the busiest nights of the year for police and ambulance personnel due to the numbers of people in towns and cities celebrating the festive season - but will operate all year round at weekends.
