Programming edit

News and sport edit

Radio Borders broadcast local news bulletins hourly from 6am to 7pm on weekdays and from 7am to 1pm on Saturdays and Sundays. Headlines were broadcast on the half-hour during weekday breakfast and drivetime shows, including sports reports. Traffic bulletins were presenter-led and broadcast at 20 and 40 minutes past the hour between 6am and 9am as well as between 4pm and 7pm.

Local news bulletins were produced in conjunction with Radio Forth's newsroom in Edinburgh and Metro Radio's newsroom in Newcastle.
