A vital bus service serving Dunblane High appears to have been given a reprieve from the axe in the bus operator’s consultation plans.
The fate of the 15A Perth to Stirling bus, which serves Dunblane and other areas of Stirlingshire, had become the subject of a petition signed by hundreds of concerned passengers and a campaign backed by local councillors and politicians.
It followed rumoured plans to move the service from an hourly to two-hourly timetable, which had led to fears over significant disruption for school pupils heading to and from school, as well as those heading into Stirling for work or socialising.
