The 208/218 is affected too.

The 100 is no longer a contract managed by SPT for Glasgow City Council. Glasgow City Council never advertised the route this time, Community Transport Glasgow are operating on a social enterprise agreement. The E200MMC is owned by Garelochhead and can be found operating the 302 route from...

Traveling Scotland get their data from SPT, due to evolving situation SPT are currently not processed service data as there is no way of keeping up they have had 2 years worth of service changes in 3 months. Bus times get there data from the Traveline Data Set, the chain is currently broken really

You are correct it only requires 1 bus, I know two operators would be fighting over the 208 & 206 :D:D:D if Dumbarton got closed.

In Scotland it is paid by the km with a bonus for environmental beneficial vehicles.

The buses will be fitted with an auxiliary heater. They are renowned for letting off white smoke periodically. I believe the fault ADL are looking at is to do with the exhaust gases ingressing to the cab

Abellio Rail Replacement organise the coaches for Serco, but trying to get a coach at 23:00 on a Friday night will be really hard given the location of the Fort William Breakdown

The turn around time from tendering through to start on contract is very short. The majority of the runs require 70+ seats, a size Carrs currently don't have our hunch is at least 1 70 seat coach to complement the private hire fleet. On a side note, will Balfron survive much longer on the...

There is 5 in Inchinnian tonight with a sixth having been seen in Gourick earlier today.

Midland Bluebirdwill have to belt the buses they are planning on using on the remaining schools they managed to keep. As the Schools have been retendered early the Schools require to be belted.

I am lead to believe Carrs have won a large majority of Balfron Schools. McColls use to be Stirling Council School Framework but last time I saw it they were not. If Balfron was to close, as Carrs currently have coaches to increase their wedding car services, I would think we could see an...
