Fans attending 150th Open at St Andrews warned not to travel by rail due to temporary timetable

Fans attending The 150th Open at St Andrews this week are being urged not to travel by rail due to a limited temporary timetable being operated by ScotRail, as they might not get home.

Organisers say they have "no choice" but to ask ticket holders to travel by road or use alternative public transport to attend The Open, which will take place from July 10-17. As a result of ScotRail's ongoing dispute with ASLEF, a much reduced number of rail services will run to and from Leuchars, Fife.

Contingency measures will be in place, including increased capacity at Park and Ride facilities to cater for the expected rise in the number of fans travelling by road. Individuals are also being advised to purchase Park and Ride tickets in advance to minimise waiting times.
