Edinburgh passengers will be the first in the world to ride a self-driving bus service as early as this spring after new funding was announced.
The UK government has injected more than £10 million into the project which will allow the creation of a completely operational and fully sized service without the need for drivers.
The project, dubbed Cavforth, is set to transport more than 10,000 passengers a week across the Forth Road bridge from Edinburgh Park to Ferrytoll Park and Ride in Fife.
