STAGECOACH have announced they are to HALF the number of buses between Cumnock and Ayr from September.
The 42 and 43 services will remain on a half hourly basis from Ayr to Drongan and Tarbolton respectively but services onwards to Cumnock will be reduced to hourly.
Tom Bridge Managing Director, Stagecoach West Scotland said: “We need to provide services that reflect current travel patterns and are sustainable, allowing us to invest in our employees and vehicles.
“Throughout the consultation period we have had a number of comments asking us to leave services as they are, or indeed to increase service provision. However, this is simply not a realistic option.”
