Megabus is to suspend coach services from Perth to England from next week due to the coronavirus outbreak.
The firm has halted all services in England and Wales, which means the Aberdeen to London route, which runs via Perth, will not run from Monday, April 6.

Services that begin and end in Scotland, however, will continue to run until further notice.
