Covid restrictions on hospitality, soft play and some spectator sports are being eased in the south of Scotland.
Dumfries and Galloway and the Scottish Borders will move into level one from 18:00.
Pubs which do not serve meals will be allowed to reopen and hospitality opening hours will be increased.
Football teams in the region have also started planning for a limited return of supporters which is permitted under the latest restrictions.
First Minister Nicola Sturgeon announced the change on Tuesday due to consistently low levels of coronavirus infection for a number of weeks.
