Is the Increase service 20 (Ratho to Hermiston Gail or Chesser ASDA) and service 63 (Queensferry to Riccarton)Indeed they have. The vehicles listed there are the recent transfers coming in to allow for the PVR increases.

When they get purchased for routes that need heavy duty vehicles rather than lightweights, it's a big problem.

apparently the 63 will get extended to Balerno from Riccarton and the 20 will serve Ingilstpn P&R
You would think first would extend the 63 to Edinburgh city centre to give Lothian County 43 competitionapparently the 63 will get extended to Balerno from Riccarton and the 20 will serve Ingilstpn P&R
I have forgotten, what is the 68 route thanks.The increase is First winning the 20, 63 and 68. Not sure exactly but i think it's a PVR increase of 7. Unless things have changed the extension of the 63 shouldn't see any increase as the frequency is going to hourly rather than the confusing 40 minute frequency.

In addition to that, tendered services are not allowed to compete with commercial ones.The routes the 20, 63 and 68 take are controlled by the council. Lothian and (soon) First simply operate it on behalf of them.

Makes senseIn addition to that, tendered services are not allowed to compete with commercial ones.
Thank youGyle Circular , Takes in Maybury, Clerwood etc

What will the route be after Ratho? Is it still going to Slateford via the calders & Westside Plaza?
Maybe it will be £1.70 for an adult and 80p for a child.I imagine it will be, otherwise that will leave the Calders and Kingsknowe without a bus service, I’m curious about the ticketing prices

I think a day ticket would be the same price as a West Lothian Zone ticket £5.50Certainly would be encouraging, as First charge that much anyway to travel from Gogarburn to Ingliston/Newbridge over LCB
I’m just wondering what dayticket offers they will have for within the Edinburgh zone because with the 20/63/68 all under First and connecting with other first services like the X22/X23 in Sighthill area and the X24/X25/X38 in Corstorphine/Maybury area, I imagine they will want to have an option to encourage folk for cross connect with other services to travel within the city or even West Lothian
You’ll know this.... Are there age limits on these tenders so are the Eclipses to be used on these routes OR to release smaller Streetlites for use on them?The increase is First winning the 20, 63 and 68.

If there is an age limit they could use some of the smaller streetlites that they already have )the ones with fleeting 474xx (SK63 K--)) and use the longer ones for west lothianYou’ll know this....

That’s what I was saying. Is there an age limit and, if so, are the Volvos to release shorter 47*** StreetLites for the tenders?If there is an age limit they could use some of the smaller streetlites that they already have )the ones with fleeting 474xx (SK63 K--)) and use the longer ones for west lothian
Do you mean even shorter than the ones already here?That’s what I was saying. Is there an age limit and, if so, are the Volvos to release shorter 47*** StreetLites for the tenders?
Is there not an Edinburgh only day ticket that is less than that? It may be useable with that. I can’t remember for definite, however I want to say it’s between £2-4.I think a day ticket would be the same price as a West Lothian Zone ticket £5.50

The only place that has the shorter ones is Falkirk for route 3/4

Do they not have a load of shorter ones in Livingston that came up from Bristol?
Livingston has short 63 plates.
Is there an official date of when first will take over the routes
