    Bernard the Elf was so happy to visit the top of the Forth Road Bridge today.... It reminds him of home as it's nearly as cold as the North Pole!

    We set up a camera trap beneath a bridge on the #A887 to check for wildlife activity ahead of us doing some work in the area...look at what we spotted! Stags, pine marten & even a cheeky otter who knocked over the camera before making a run for it! @trafficscotland @transcotland

    Happy New Year from everyone at BEAR Scotland! It remains business as usual due to cold weather impacting routes across Scotland! Our Corpach Depot Supervisor snapped this great picture of one of our smallest gritters known as “Little Betty” sitting under the mighty #BenNevis!
