Upcoming Service Changes from 20th August
We have made changes to our network to further support and improve connections across Aberdeen.
The changes, which will come into force from Sunday 20th August, include an improvement to Service 13 that will make it easier to access the beach by bus, while a number of specialised school journeys have been merged into normal service.
Service 1B will be adjusted to serve Bridge of Don Retail Park in both directions providing easier access to and from the shops in this area. As a result, Bridge of Don Park & Ride will no longer served due to very low demand.
Minor timetable adjustments have been made to services 1, 1A, 2, 12, 15, 15B, 17, 17K, 18, 19, 172.
