Lead on, Macduff.
This is the Lothian Street side of Bristo Square in Edinburgh’s Southside and at the heart of the University of Edinburgh’s central campus. In the foreground is one of Transport for Edinburgh’s Just Eat Cycles docking stations. When the scheme was initially rolled out in September 2018, many of the first docking stations were on campus or in other areas likely to be popular with students. Beyond the bikes at one of the two bus stops is Lothian 699 working the University shuttle between Bristo Square and the Science and Engineering campus at The King’s Buildings (located a couple of miles south of the city centre). This is is a private service for staff and students of the University of Edinburgh and operated under contract by Lothian Buses. The cobalt blue Pashley bikes are named as well as numbered - thus on the left are Macduff and Mikey or Mickey. Another Lothian Bus on a southbound Service 27 can be seen disappearing on the far left along Teviot Place.
UPDATE: The University shuttle has been operated by Lothian Motorcoaches since Sept 2019.
