Graeme Macfarlan, Commercial Director for First Scotland East, said: “From 15th March, travel by First West Lothian will be better value than ever before. As well as rewarding our loyal customers, we are keen to encourage more people to opt for leaving their car at home. These price drops reflect our commitment to residents in West Lothian, for whom cost effective public transport is a vital part of everyday life. We are putting them first with this decision.” The region’s largest bus operator is also simplifying its fare structure. The change will see all Adult Single fares start from just £1.70 and Child singles from just 90p. All weekly, monthly and annual tickets will now also have the same price for 2-zone travel in West Lothian as it is for one. This means customers can now enjoy unlimited travel to and from Edinburgh for the same price as their local travel ticket in and around Livingston. Graeme McFarlan added: “Simplifying our fare structure is an important step. We were particularly keen to make two-zone travel more appealing, and better value. Given you can now travel in two zones for the price of one, it has never been easier to travel with the bus in West Lothian.”
