Scottish Citylink has announced a series of timetable improvements across Central Scotland, including the launch of services running 24-hours a day between Glasgow, Cumbernauld, Stirling, Perth, Dundee and Aberdeen.
The new timetable, which begins on 7 November, focuses on delivering more direct journeys and less need for connections as the company continues to deliver on its promise of ‘6 cities every 60 minutes’.
The enhancements mean that all of Scotland’s most popular cities are better served than ever by coach journeys.
For the first time ever, the launch of 24/7 services across the central belt covering Glasgow, Cumbernauld, Stirling, Perth, Dundee and Aberdeen, with half-hourly services offered to most locations during the day, and up to hourly services running during the night.
