Falkirk councillor hopes new bus owners will improve services for everyone

A Falkirk councillor says she hopes that the takeover of local bus services will lead to improvements - especially for people living in the more rural parts of Falkirk district.

On September 7, First Bus announced an agreement to sell its Scotland East business and all of its routes to McGill’s Group.

The sale, which will complete later this month, includes the First Bus depots in Larbert, Bannockburn. It also includes over 200 buses which are currently operated in the region by approximately 550 staff.
