@CloudyMrs I do agree. However what I would prefer are more potentially modest (in terms of capacity) services which are distributed in a way that means people do not need to travel excessively. But pretending (as some authorities do) that it is about environmental concerns is simply not correct. Better to have services that are as local as possible (not easy) living in the Highlands and travel with children, while coping with school, work and other things is difficult much of the year.
