New Edinburgh Services
First West Lothian have launched not one, not two - but three new services!
Say hello to services 20, 63, and 68.
Service 20 - connecting Ratho with Hermiston Gait.
Service 63 – serving Queensferry to Gyle and Balerno.
Service 68 – linking South Gyle, Turnhouse and Drumbrae.
It gets better! Service 20 will now serve Ingliston Park and Ride and Service 63 will be extended to Balerno. This means even better connections, and options for onward travel! We're delighted to offer some exciting extensions on the existing routes which offer new connections and journey opportunities for customers in the areas served.
