East Lothian Council subsidises a number of bus services on routes where no alternative route exists, and where commercial bus operators would not be able to cover their costs if they delivered a service. Where a need is identified, the Council may subsidise a commercial operator to cover a whole route, or part of a route at a particular time of the day.
We currently subsidise bus services on the following routes:
Feedback gathered through this consultation will help us to establish where subsidised bus routes are most needed. This information will help us to ensure we use our budget in the most effective way.
