Stagecoach have recently announced that a new bus services will help connect the campus with the wider community. BlueBird Services X20, 219 and 421 will serve the new Alford Community Campus from 2nd Nov – see link to download a timetable
Bus Timetable incl. Community Campus
However you have to look very hard to discover the service times –
there is 1 time per day Mondays to Fridays and 1 service on a Sunday on the X20 service
there is 1 time per day on school days only on the service 219
there are 3 times per day Mondays to Fridays, 2 times on a Saturday and 1 time on a Sunday on the 421 service
We would like to hear your comments on the proposed times and frequency of the new services to the Community Campus.
Well that did not work very well on the first day of the new service to the campus. People waiting at the interchange for the bus which sailed on past without stopping as the bus to Huntly was sitting at the bus stop! And we wonder why people do not use buses!
After a complaint to Stagecoach they have said they will put an inspector on to the service next week to ensure it runs to schedule.
