Lower Bus Prices in Falkirk

Lower Bus Prices in Falkirk

The Issue

The Falkirk area has some of the most unfair bus prices in the whole of Scotland, for example in West Lothian, it costs £1.70 from Bridgened to Linlithgow (4 miles), while a comparison journey in Falkirk, Grangemouth Town Hall to Falkirk Bus Depot (3 miles) costs £2.70. Other examples include:

- Redding Cross to Falkirk - £2.70 (2,5 miles)

- Bonnybridge to Falkirk - £2.70 (4.9 miles)

That compares to the flat fare that operates in the Glasgow area, so it costs £2 no matter where you go, even from Glasgow to Kirkintillock (13 miles!) 

This is a national scandal and we in Falkirk are getting a raw deal!
