The Better Buses for Buchan campaign is gaining steam with local press coverage, a growing group of local folk keen to take this fight further and plans forming for outreach across Buchan and summer events and stalls to spread the word. If you're fed up with the buses and want to do something about it, now is the perfect time to get involved!

Join us for a meeting at The Hub Peterhead (formerly the OAP Social Club).

Buchan’s bus network, reliant on Stagecoach's poor service, is failing passengers. The average bus fare has increased above inflation, discouraging bus use and resulting in routes being cut across our region. 

Safe, reliable and affordable buses are essential to connect our communities - they are a lifeline.

For travelling to the venue, the nearest stop is at the Peterhead bus station. 

Light snacks will be provided.

Join the campaign to take our buses back into public control! 

You can follow the campaign on Instagram, Facebook and sign the petition to council leaders to bring Grampian buses back under public control.

This event is organised by Friends of the Earth Scotland.
