Memo To: First Buses
CC: Aberdeen City Council
Dear First Busses,

It’s been 3 weeks since you changed your bus timetable to make the buses are bit more convenient for everyone (everyone that is except me).

Please Please PLEASE can you update your bus stops with the right numbers, maps and timetables.  I cant bear to watch the confusion all the old grannies now have every time they want to get on the bus.

I’m lucky, I know about the change to the bus timetable. If I were a tourist I really would be confused.

Saying that, if I were a tourist, why would I be going to Aberdeen on holiday?

Yours,

David

Regular blog readers will now know that after nearly 2 years of living in Aberdeen I have finally mastered the Aberdeen bus system.

All was well and good. I could work out what buses I could get, and what days and times I could get them.

I was even beginning to quite like the buses.

Until today when I picked up a leaflet which was telling me about the timetable changes coming into effect from the 6th April.

Lovely. The two buses I use on a regular basis are being withdrawn. They’ve been replaced by a bus which takes a slightly different route. Helpful for some, BUT NOT ME.

Taxi?
