Fancy a day in Edinburgh during Festival time?

Connecting Communities

Helping local people get out, get connected and go further.

Glenfarg Community Transport – Connecting Communities is proposing a special 203 connecting service to help people from the Kinross area travel into Edinburgh for the day.

🏠 Collection from your local area
Our Connected Community Bus (203) will collect booked passengers and take you to Kinross Park & Ride, aiming to arrive at approximately 09:55.

🚌 Onward to Edinburgh
From Kinross Park & Ride, passengers connect with the Ember bus to Edinburgh, giving you the day to enjoy the Festival, Fringe, shopping, sightseeing or simply a day out in the city.

🌆 Coming home
After your day in Edinburgh, return by Ember to Kinross Park & Ride, where the 203 service will collect passengers at approximately 17:30 and take you back towards home.

IMPORTANT – TWO BOOKINGS ARE REQUIRED

To make the journey, passengers must book:

1. The Connected Community Bus (203) – for your local collection and return journey to/from Kinross Park & Ride.

2. The Ember bus – for your journey between Kinross Park & Ride and Edinburgh.

Places on the Connecting Communities service must be booked in advance.

♿ ACCESSIBILITY DURING THE TRIAL

Please note that during this initial trial we are not currently able to provide a fully accessible vehicle on the Connected Community Bus (203).

Passengers need to be comfortable and able to board and leave our minibuses using the vehicle steps.
