Trivia and Design
Full details: History:Heart of Scotland
Heart of Scotland is the only services between Glasgow and Edinburgh, and for this reason it doubles-up as a long-distance bus interchange.
Despite its large footprint, it only has a forecourt sales building, leaving a lot of unused space which looks overgrown and unattended to.
A new, modern, glass footbridge was lifted into place in 2008 helps form a park and ride site at the services, with ramps and access from the local road network.
