Following on from their reviews of services in Falkirk & West Lothian, First Midland Bluebird have, this morning, announced their review to services out of Bannockburn depot.
Full details are available here , where you'll also find a feedback form. The bus company will also be available at Stirling Bus Station on Friday for consultations. Friday is also the closing date for feedback.
The main "improvement" will be the X36 Service between Stirling & Glasgow, which will be increased to half hourly, and will run as a real express after Cumbernauld.
But on the more local routes, there are cuts planned. The current Cowie- Stirling services are reduced to half hourly, and will serve both Whins of Milton and Braehead on the same journeys. The services will then extend to Alloa. Services via the Hillfoots will also reduce to half hourly. There will be a 15 minute frequency maintained between Alloa & Stirling.
Services via Cornton and Bridge Of Allan will only run every half hour (currently every 20 minutes) between Stirling and the University.
Clackmannan Service 60 will be withdrawn, which is not a surprise, due to its' high fares compared to other operators and services. The town will still be served by NHS/Clacks Council funded H1/2 services as well as Mackies and Stagecoach.
The revised services are likely to be implemented on 10th September.
