| Topic & Speaker: | Scottish Rural & Islands Transport Community - Virtual Cafe:BYOC In this edition of the SRITC Virtual Cafe we focus on tourism and transport. The Scottish tourist economy has been massively impacted by COVID19. After the initial lockdown period earlier this year, rural tourist businesses gradually opened up again and were quickly faced with huge demand from people seeing to escape to the countryside for a "staycation". With many of these staycation journeys being made using private cars and with public & community transport operators limiting the amount of passengers they can carry, many challenges lie ahead for rural economies. Particuarly as we move into winter and the tourist "off season". Thankfully we will have some excellent speakers on hand to share their insights on the professional and personal exploration they have undertaken in recent months to understand the impact that COVID19 is having on Scotland's rural tourist sector and the practicalties of trying to travel without using a car. |
