Richy Graham, operations manager, said: "We can’t wait to see the positive impact the changes will have on our customers and the community.

"The improved frequency of services 15 and 17 will not only provide more options but will also promote sustainable travel in our city.

“We’re thrilled to offer these benefits to our customers who rely on our services.

"Our commitment to enhancing customer experience is stronger than ever, and we’re eager to hear feedback to keep improving."

Councillor Duncan Cumming, Independent Councillor for Bearsden North added: “I was absolutely delighted to receive the news that West Coast Motors has taken the commercial decision to significantly enhance their already very popular and successful bus services 15 and 17.

"Both services are extremely well used by local people and these timetable enhancements will open up a whole new range of possibilities.

"These services provide excellent routes and timetables.

"At a time when we are all being encouraged to use public transport more to help the environment by reducing emissions, this news couldn't come at a better time.

"Additionally, with everyone needing to be mindful of daily expenses, bus travel offers great value for money.

"I wish West Coast Motors all the very best with these exciting timetable enhancements.”
