Bus information and timetables

May 2022

Stagecoach increase fares from 8 May

Stgecoach has emailed with the information below

On Sunday 8^th May 2022 we are going to be revising our bus fares across the network. These changes reflect the rising costs of running services since. Since 2019 costs across the bus industry have risen by about 12%. The new ticket prices will add on average 4.9% onto single and multi-journey tickets which is still below the annual rate of inflation (CPI) of 8.2%. We will also be raising the prices on our DayRider, Flexi-5 and our MegaRider tickets - these are outlined below.

Specific fares for your journey can be found by using the Journey Planner on our website and viewing ticket results. Please make sure that the date of the journey is after the 8^th May 2022.

Black Isle and Easter Ross Stagecoach timetables

from 28 June 2021

June 2021

Stagecoach timetable changes 28 June

Bruce Morrison, Secretary of Ferintosh Community Council, has investigated and reported on these changes  (see below)

You can view and download timetables for all Black Isle and Easter Ross services from 28 June  here .

Here's an update on bus timetables around the region beginning on Monday. Through the Stagecoach website, these new timetables can be viewed under Service Updates but currently through Timetables the new ones don't appear. Ferintosh Community Bus has its separate listing but not referred to in the new 22 timetable and I've asked for that to be rectified.

I've had a look for any major changes put in by Stagecoach for the 21 and 22 services and can't find any but there are some minor timing changes:

21: no changes towards Dingwall but coming back from Dingwall, the 12.05 becomes a 12.15 and the 17.50 becomes a 17.45.22: late evening bus will leave Inverness now at 17.30 (currently it's 1735)22: the current 9.15 bus from Culbokie is now at 9.20.

[This information was originally posted with the information for service 21 given as for 22, and vice versa.  Correct version above.]

The A9 buses (25, X25) are all timetabled into Tore Services so that the FCB can link.

I haven't checked the A835 buses for timings but they are not timetabled through Tore Services.

Traveline Scotland provides information about all Stagecoach Highland services and all Scottish bus operators.  Unfortunately most people will find the Traveline timetables difficult to read because of the small size of the type.  Stagecoach timetables are better.
