The Freight Transport Association has welcomed the announcement by the Scottish Government of an additional £4.5m of Freight Facilities Grant.
This comes on top of the earlier announcement of £0.75 for 2012-2013 and £2.0m for 2013-2014. £4.5m will also be available now for 2014-2015.
The grant is open to applications for funding of rail and water facilities in Scotland meeting specific criteria.
