History
[edit | edit source]Route number 15 was formerly allocated to a route via Union Street between the beach and either Craigiebuckler or Airyhall.[1] In July 2022, this route was withdrawn as part of a wider timetable change that saw a new route 15 introduced between Countesswells and Balnagask.[2][3] The changes were met with criticism as it left Footdee without a bus service.[4]
The new route to Countssells was also criticised as local residents claimed that Countesswells Road is too narrow for buses to pass other vehicles safely.[5] First conducted a site visit in July 2022 and stated they deemed the road to be suitable.[6][7][8]
Route 15 no longer serves Countesswells which is now served by an extension to route 11. The number 11 bus previously terminated at Woodend.
