Better for you, your staff and the planet!

Make the switch and save £££s on your travel costs.

Everyone is painfully aware of the spiralling cost of running a motor car. With ever increasing numbers of cars on our roads, the cost is felt in other ways too.

Traffic congestion is a real problem. Emissions caused by the sheer volume of traffic are seriously damaging our environment. As an employer, there’s a significant cost to you too – not least in the provision of car parking for your staff.

A monthly BusinessLink pass between Glasgow and Edinburgh costs £121.70, compared to £273.80 for a monthly rail pass and around £251 for petrol. That's a huge saving for your staff. And there's no parking to pay for either!

BusinessLink from Citylink is a great way to encourage your employees to leave their cars at home, or switch from the train, and use the bus. They save a small fortune on their travel costs and you, as an employer, will benefit too! And there’s no compromise in comfort – all our express coaches are modern, luxurious and fully air-conditioned.

• Improved punctuality and productivity

  Buses get through the rush-hour traffic more quickly, especially along urban routes with bus-lanes. Your staff can relax on the bus and arrive at the workplace on time and stress-free – improving their frame of mind and increasing their productivity.

• Ease the pressure on parking

  Fewer staff cars on site means less pressure on parking, which creates more spaces for visitors and easier access for delivery vehicles. The problem of overspill parking, which may affect local residents, can also be eliminated. The true cost of maintaining a car parking facility on site is estimated to run into hundreds of pounds per space per year.

• Low-cost or zero-cost – the choice is yours

  BusinessLink needn’t cost you a penny; simply pass on the costs to your staff, highlighting the savings they can make on their car running costs or on their rail travel. Alternatively, BusinessLink enables you to offer subsidised travel to and from the workplace. You can even use it as an Incentive Scheme.
