A park and ride shuttle service is set to operate during the International Ayr Show - Festival of Flight.

Stagecoach is one of the sponsors of this year's event, and will be providing an open-top bus for live flight commentary.

To reduce congestion in the town and ensure smooth travel to and from the event, Stagecoach will operate a park and ride shuttle service in partnership with South Ayrshire Council.

This service will operate frequently during the event, making it the easiest way to access the show.

The shuttle service schedule will be Friday, September 6 between 2.32pm and 10.30pm, and Saturday, September 7 between 10.30am and 9.30pm.

One of the park and ride locations is Ayr Racecourse, with pickup locations on Craigie Park, Craigie Road and Ayr Esplanade.
