I’ve just seen the news below on the Metlink website. It has come in response to pressure from the community, including advocacy from your local Ward Councillors and MPs.

It has come in response to pressure from the community, including advocacy from your local Ward Councillors and MPs.
Along with the extension of Route 14 back to Kilbirnie this is a good start, but there is still more that needs to be done! I’ll certainly be keeping the pressure on GWRC for more improvements.

Thanks to all the GWRC councillors for listening and acknowledging issues and to Regional Councillors Daran Ponter and Sue Kedgley for moving amendments to reinstate the 18e to an all day service, extend the 14 back to Kilbirnie and look at fixes for the capacity issues on the 2 route.
