Bus News

Very easy to work out why as there are two words that explain it all - Midlothian Council!

Bad news from Lothian Buses as the July 14th "changes" (at least they are not classed as improvements) mean the end of Saturday services on the 15 plus it will only travel as far as Waterloo Place

Nobody has posted for months. I come in every day, just to see - but is there anybody left out there?

Yeah, it has become very quiet. I just hope nobody is suffering from COVID 19. However, there does seem to be some light at the end of the tunnel.

All well here, so far. Excpot the spill chucker.

Today I noticed it says the forum is locked. I thought maybe that meant the place was closing. But I've managed to post this - so maybe it isn't?

Just curious!



Happy May Day anyway!

Lothian Buses still have no plans to bring back the service 15 route to / from Penicuik saying that there is not the demand for it. Obviousl there is nobody living here who works at the numerous businesses etc based there! You currently need to get one bus to Bilston then take another back to the Bush campus!

Well, after all, it only takes a minute or two to walk to The Bush from Penicuik . . . doesn't it?



If, of course, you have extremely long legs indeed . . .

Good news as the 101 service is saved until March 2023. Hopefully a long term solution will be sorted out now for this essential service.
