Face coverings will become mandatory on all public transport from Monday, Nicola Sturgeon has announced.
The First Minister confirmed the start of phase two of her lockdown lifting plan for the country this afternoon.
Trains, subways, taxis, planes and ferries all included under the new rules as part of Phase Two.
Children under five, people with breathing difficulties and drivers already protected by shield are exempt.
“It is not an absolute safeguard," said Sturgeon.
"But face coverings can help to reduce the risk of transmission."
From Friday, people will be able to meet two other households at the same time while outside, with no more than eight people gathered at a time.
Scots are urged to stay within a roughly five-mile radius of their home for recreational purposes.
People will also be able to go inside to use the toilet when meeting in someone else's garden, the First Minister added.
She also confirmed those who are in the shielding category will be able to go outside for exercise from Friday, as well as be able to meet people from one other household, as was the case for the general public in phase one, so long as social distancing measures are adhered to.
