The 20 & 63 are tendered services, so McGill’s won’t increase the frequency. If they have any additional resources they will clearly use them on their own commercial routes.

If you hand back SPT tenders before the end of the contract, they are entitled to charge you the difference between your contract rate and any replacement, that costs them more. Unless of course SPT have decided to cancel them all, which is unlikely. Alternatively, they may have found an...

Ah, right, that would make sense. They seem quite restrictive with their day ticket bundles, when compared with other ops.

Every bus and coach has a maximum seating/standing capacity, which must be displayed prominently inside the vehicle. The authorised capacity is set as part of the build process, and is nothing to do with the individual operator. The vast majority of coaches do not permit standing passengers...

Good to see that a revised West Lothian network map has been produced. https://images-mcgillsse.passenger-website.com/2022-11/West%20Lothian%20and%20Livingston.pdf It also looks like printed timetable leaflets may be making a comeback, with these being produced for next week’s revised 21, X22...

It’s the registration for the SPT 11 that is being varied.
