Exciting enhancements to Glasgow services 15 and 17

We're adding hundreds of extra journeys to our Glasgow routes! 

From Monday 30 September, we're improving frequencies on services 15 and 17, with a whopping increase of over 250 additional journeys!

This service boost is part of our ongoing commitment to providing reliable, friendly and frequent travel options. Not only will you have more buses to choose from, but it enables you to do your bit for the environment by opting for public transport over the car.

This is great new for students, with services 15 and 17 serving the city's universities and many halls of residence in the west of the city, who will be able to enjoy more frequent and dependable access to classes, work, and social events. 

The improvements include: 

- Service 15: 154 extra journeys, later evening trips, a ramped-up Saturday service, and a brand-new Sunday service. 

- Service 17: 98 extra journeys, a streamlined timetable and evening journey every 30 minutes.

In addition to these exciting changes, we would like to remind customers, both old and new, that free bus travel is available for those over 60 years of age and for young people under 22. 

Richy Graham, operations manager, said: "We can’t wait to see the positive impact the changes will have on our customers and the community. The improved frequency of services 15 and 17 will not only provide more options but will also promote sustainable travel in our city.   We’re thrilled to offer these benefits to our customers who rely on our services. Our commitment to enhancing customer experience is stronger than ever, and we’re eager to hear feedback to keep improving." 

Councillor Duncan Cumming, Independent Councillor for Bearsden North added: “I was absolutely delighted to receive the news that West Coast Motors has taken the commercial decision to significantly enhance their already very popular and successful bus services 15 and 17.  Both services are extremely well used by local people and these timetable enhancements will open up a whole new range of possibilities. These services provide excellent routes and timetables. At a time when we are all being encouraged to use public transport more to help the environment by reducing emissions, this news couldn't come at a better time. Additionally, with everyone needing to be mindful of daily expenses, bus travel offers great value for money.  I wish West Coast Motors all the very best with these exciting timetable enhancements.”
