It’s a missed opportunity, especially when you put your mind to it it would go down very well for Lothian in both the east/west. LCB not having it is surprising giving how much resources they are putting into West Lothian, you’d think that would be priority number one. but since Lothian Buses have taken over East Lothian completely it’s still shocking that the residents don’t have that option, at least not for beyond Haddington/Dirleton.. I honestly can’t think of an excuse besides lack of interest at this point
I mean they could just reintroduce the Zone C/D Ridacard at the same price with the ECB brand on it. But with some additional plus on options to attract customers
Even if they did a Zone E+F Card instead of individual ones.
Have it like
ECB Zone C Ridacard - £75 (£18 weekly)
ECB Zone D Ridacard - £84 (£21 weekly)
ECB Zone E+F Ridacard -£90 (£22.50 weekly)
Include the same benefits of the city Ridacard with free travel on the nighthawk in respective zones! Would be nice to have one within the County zones only but hard to think of a price for that one.
