Local bus service contracts in the Angus Council area (2016)

A number of local bus services operated under contract to Angus Council were due renewal in late May 2017. These are services which operate with financial support from the council in order to maintain vital public transport links for the community.

A number of on-bus surveys were undertaken in order to identify the travel patterns of existing bus users and seek their views on the current levels of service provision. As part of the contract renewal process it was also important that the wider community is consulted in order to ascertain any unmet travel demands and identify requests for changes to the service level, timings or routes of the contracts in question.
