Stagecoach has announced it will withdraw the 13:05 204 bus service which runs from Aberdeen to Banchory/Strachan via the South Deeside Road on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
The next alternative journey is 17:20 hours from Aberdeen to Strachan, which runs Monday to Friday.
Information supplied by the operator indicates an average passenger demand of fewer than two passengers per journey.
The implementation date will be 7 May.
I can understand about stopping the bus to Banchory & Strachan only having about 4 people What is my grump is the Stagecoach bus to and from Portlethen-to Aberdeen service Just 2 buses in an hour The size of Portlethen warrants 3 a hour It used to be so why change it When i am able to go out it seems the buses are never on time Thank goodness they have stopped the one that had 3 to 4 steps to get on to it. The bus drivers are good they put down the entrance step to help us older ones + the Buggies to get on to bus
According to Stagecoach there were insufficient passengers numbers to justify a more regular service.
