From Monday 1st February 2010, Fishers Tours have registered some changes to their Scottish Express services. At the moment, 225, 229, 232, 233, 238, 245 have been deregistered, without replacement. The Fishers Tours website makes no mention of changes to the services for this year, so no further details yet. Updated - these six services have been withdrawn with effect from 31st January 2010. This follows a public enquiry by the Traffic Commissoner, following problems in operating the Scottish Express network earlier in 2009. These will not be re-registered, as the operator's licence has been restricted. (Source - transcript of the enquiry distributed by NDS). Updated yet later - all services will continue without change. New timetables for all these routes have been updated below, which includes the dates of operation of these services for 2010.
From Monday 15th February 2010, there will be changes to various Stagecoach Fife and Strathtay services over the Tay Road Bridge - 42, X42, X54, 91, 96, 96A. Service 42 will be revised to operate every 20 minutes (Mon to Sat daytime) between Tayport (Shanwell Road South) and Dundee city centre, with one journey per hour extending to Cupar. Evening and Sunday journeys provided on behalf of Fife Council will continue to operate to/from Ninewells Hospital. Some school-time journeys on Service 42 will display Service 342, and start/end at Bell-Baxter High School, Cupar. Service 91 will be revised to operate hourly between St.Andrews and Leuchars rail station from approx 0900 to 1500 on Mondays to Saturdays, serving St.Andrews Community Hospital, Craigtoun Park and Strathkinness. The section of route between Leuchars and Dundee via Wormit will no longer be served, although connections will be available at Leuchars with service 99 to/from Dundee. Moffat & Williamson Service 92 also provides links between Wormit/Newport and St Andrews. Service 96/96A will be revised to operate hourly between St.Andrews and Ninewells Hospital during much of the day (Monday to Saturday), serving Leuchars, Tayport (Queen Street only), and Dundee city centre. Early morning, evening and Sunday journeys will continue to serve Strathkinness as service 96A. Service X42 will be increased (from the current one bus per direction, weekdays only) to provide an hourly link for much of the day (Mon to Sat) between Kirkcaldy and Ninewells Hospital, serving Forth Park & Victoria Hospitals, Asda Kirkcaldy, Eastfield Industrial Estate, Woodside, Glenrothes, Ladybank, Elmwood College, Cupar (incl.Trading Estate), Balmullo, Newport (peak time journeys only), Dundee city centre, Dundee railway station, and during the day will extend to Riverside Drive, Dundee Technology Park (Apollo Way and Explorer Road), Gowrie Park Mallaig Avenue, Spey Drive, and Ninewells Hospital. This will supplement the existing service X54 between Glenrothes and Dundee to provide half hourly departures for much of the day between these locations. The existing Mon to Fri peak time journey numbered X42 between Dunfermline/Glenrothes and Dundee will be incorporated into the X54 timetable. (Note that the X42 and X54 are now in seperate downloads). Service X54 Monday to Friday additional journeys will operate at 0640 from Dunfermline to Dundee via Cowdenbeath, Glenrothes and the normal route via the A92, and at 1710 from Dundee to Glenrothes to connect with the 1805 X24 journey from Glenrothes to Dunfermline. These will both replace journeys on the "old" X42. In addition the 0810 (Mon -Fri) Dundee to Glenrothes journey will run 10 minutes later, whilst the 2000 (Mon – Sat) Dundee to Glenrothes journey will run 10 minutes earlier. The additional journeys operating on Saturdays between Glenrothes and Dundee have been withdrawn, but new Service X42 will provide an extra hourly service, Monday to Saturday. New timetables can be had for each route, by clicking on the links.
From Monday 25th January 2010 Sunday 21st February 2010, National Express Dundee Services 30/31 will be extended further beyond the Medipark to/from Invergowrie village. Note that this change was originally mentioned by the operator to be starting on 25th January, but the Office of the Traffic Commisoner would not accept the change until 90 days from the date of the last change. An updated timetable is now uploaded.
