So I thought, you know what, let's try this park and ride.. park outside the city and get a bus in..
So Aberdeen, what the hell? All the park and ride places are shut or have one bus service that serves them? If we park further out the cost is like 30+ quid for two people and an hour each way.
So the choice is not to go into Aberdeen anymore, or pay to park in the middle.. #parkandride #aberdeen #aberdeenshire #GreenTransport #buses #aberdeenCityCouncil

Over-running meeting webcasts cost Aberdeen City Council £12,000

Aberdeen City Council looks to tackle the number of adjourned, reconvened and requisitioned meetings.

The campaign to reopen the Belmont in Aberdeen is gaining momentum and the fundraising effort has passed £500,000. I talked to Jacob Campbell and Sarah Dingwall about the project and heard from film director Jon S Baird who backs it! #BelmontCommunityCinema #BarryNorman #Aberdeen #JacobCampbell #JonSBaird #AberdeenCityCouncil https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/lifestyle/6595432/belmont-cinema-closed-2-years/
Two years on from Belmont Filmhouse closure, how is the £2m campaign to reopen it going?

The cinema closed two years ago, but campaigners have revealed that more than half a million pounds has been raised to reopen it.

Aberdeen’s Low Emission Zone comes into effect on Saturday. It has provoked plenty of negative headlines, but the plan was originally drawn up by a cross-party group of city councillors. I talked to politicians across the divide to discuss this contentious issue! #LEZ #AberdeenCityCouncil #MichaelHutchison #LiamKerr #TauqeerMalik https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/lifestyle/6477341/low-emission-zone-nail-coffin-aberdeen/
Will the LEZ be another blow to Aberdeen city centre or a breath of fresh air?

The move, introduced by the Scottish Government across the country, has sparked fresh fears for struggling businesses.

This was Aberdeen’s Johnston Gardens a week ago: a feast of autumnal shades and unusually warm sunshine. Today, there are strong winds and driving rain and tonight’s Christmas tree unveiling ceremony, organised by the council, has been postponed until Sunday. Take care: it’s wild out there! #Aberdeen #JohnstonGardens #aberdeenCityCouncil #ChristmasTree
