There was understandable dismay expressed by many people when Stagecoach announced it was planning to withdraw the Sunday bus service between Fort William and Kinlochleven, among other changes to public transport provision across Lochaber and the Highlands.
Such was the level of feeling, with emotions running high, that a consultation event was held in Fort William on Wednesday March 1 in a bid to shed light on apparent changes to bus services.
Angry commuters campaigned vigorously against the proposed reduction in services – and their efforts now appear to have been rewarded with a U-turn by Stagecoach, according to Councillor Andrew Baxter, who broke the news via his social media account, Lochaber Voice, this week.
