Kingswells Community Council

First Aberdeen announced a  number of service changes in November 2009 to take effect in February 2010.  The Council, bus users and many other stakeholders were concerned that some of the changes represented a significant reduction in service with a wide range of impacts upon local communities and the economy.

First explained that their proposed changes were required to deliver improvements to other services within their network.  First have claimed that there are significant traffic problems within the City, leading to unreliable bus services.
