International Women’s Day: ‘You belong in the driver’s seat’

We’re marking International Women’s Day (8 March) this year by celebrating colleagues from across our business who help us deliver for all our customers.

We know that women are traditionally underrepresented within the transport sector and, while Lothian is bucking the national trend, we’re keen to encourage more women to consider careers in the sector.

Drivers June Robertson and Carys Gargan are fantastic ambassadors for Lothian and they’re keen to inspire more women to take the wheel and join our driving teams.

Today on International Women’s Day, June and Carys share their experience of being bus drivers and talk about how fulfilling the role can be for women of all ages.

"Being a bus driver is really empowering" - June Robertson, Lothian bus driver

June Robertson first became a bus driver in 1987 working for another operator in the region. She gave it up after seven years before returning to the profession as a Lothian driver in 2024, and is a well-loved member of driving team at our Marine depot.

June said she has ‘zero regrets’ about jumping behind the wheel again and thinks more women over 50 should get into the bus industry as drivers.

“It’s a fantastic job for women my age,” said June. “It’s just like going out for a Sunday drive every day except you’re in a bigger vehicle!”

She speaks warmly about being part of the driving team and describes the industry as a “really comfortable, supportive environment” to work in. Above all, it’s the people she meets each day that make the role so rewarding.

“The public love seeing women driving the bus,” June said. “They’re always excited when they see you and want to have a chat as they get on.”

Reflecting on her experience in the late 1980s compared with today, June believes there has never been a better time for women to become bus drivers.

“There’s a lot more respect for us as drivers now,” she explained. “And there are so many younger drivers joining the teams so there are people from all walks of life and backgrounds.”

She also highlights how the industry has evolved in practical ways. “In 1987, I had to wear a male uniform as they didn’t have female one,” June said. “At Lothian, we have a smart female uniform which I love.

“It makes the job feel easier when you know you’re well turned out – it makes a massive difference being comfortable at your work.”

Hoping to inspire even one woman to follow in her footsteps as a bus driver, June is marking International Women’s Day by encouraging others to give it a go. “The more women drivers we have, the more visible we’ll be and hopefully that’ll result in more women joining us themselves.“ June added: “My advice would be to take the chance – you will have a great time.

“The only thing stopping you is you. Being a bus driver is really empowering – come and give it a go!”

‘Everyone looks out for you – I’ve never felt isolated or alone’ – Carys Gargan, Lothian bus driver

Carys Gargan joined Lothian in 2024 following in her bus driver father’s footsteps. She was looking for an exciting opportunity, and bus driving was something she’d always been interested in.

While initially nervous about those first few days behind the wheel, nearly two years later she hasn’t looked back. Now based at our Longstone depot, she’s planning for a long, successful and rewarding career at Lothian. “I want to keep progressing at the company and do more in the garage,” said Carys.

As a young woman, she understands why some of her peers might hesitate to apply. Shift patterns can seem daunting, and there may be concerns about fitting into what is often seen as a male-dominated profession.

But Carys is quick to challenge those perceptions.

“You get your shifts in advance, so you can plan around them,” she explained. “There’s a great salary on offer and a really good work-life balance for young women.”

She also highlights just how welcoming the team has been.

“After a few weeks, it felt like I’d been here for years. Everyone was so supportive.”

One of the most rewarding parts of the job, she says, is the positive reaction she receives from customers – especially children.

“Young children are always so excited to see you,” she said with a smile. “You hear them telling their parents they want to be bus drivers when they’re older.

“That always makes me feel reassured that I made the right choice in coming here.”

Carys is equally passionate about reassuring other women who may have doubts about joining the team.

“The garage is such a comfortable environment to be in,” she said. “I’ve never felt isolated or alone, and if you’ve had a tough shift, everyone looks out for you and helps lift your spirits.

“I even met my best friend here – now we do everything together!”

This International Women’s Day, Carys is encouraging more young women to take the leap and consider a career as a bus driver at Lothian.

“The biggest barrier is just applying and walking through the door,” she said. “Once you get past that, you’ll absolutely love it. The longer you’re here, the more it feels like home.”

Lothian welcomes and encourages applications from women looking for career opportunities within the bus industry. If you would like to pursue a role with Lothian Buses, please view the latest vacancies on our careers page.

Apply to Lothian’s award-winning apprentice technician programme

Lothian is welcoming applications for its renowned apprentice technician programme which has helped shape the careers of over 150 skilled mechanics over the course of the last decade.

Open to those aged 16 and over – with no upper age limit – the Apprentice Technician programme provides participants with four years of hands-on training to acquire either an SCQF Level 7 in Heavy Goods and Public Service Vehicle Maintenance and Repair, or an SCQF Level 6 in Vehicle Body Repair and Alignment upon successful completion.

Working in partnership with GTG, apprentices are given fantastic opportunities to develop their skill set in a modern, purpose-built centre, while still benefiting from practical experience within Lothian’s garages alongside knowledgeable and experienced colleagues, getting paid a competitive wage while they learn.

Chloe Riddell completed her apprenticeship with Lothian in 2025 and is currently working as a qualified mechanic at our Marine depot. Speaking of the impact the programme had on her, she said: “I tried college [before applying for the apprenticeship] but I wasn’t getting the hands-on experience I needed to be able to learn fully. This apprenticeship gave me what I needed.

“I’m so much more confident in myself now, and I always felt very supported throughout my apprenticeship. We were told there was no such thing as a stupid question, and there was always someone there to help.”

The deadline to apply to Lothian’s apprenticeship programme is Friday 27 March. Tap the button below to learn more and submit an application.

To speak to someone about the application process, or for any other questions, please contact GTG on 0141 950 5600.

Coach Driver of the Year 2026

Lothian’s annual Coach Driver of the Year competition was held on Thursday 19 February at our Longstone depot where drivers from Eve Coaches and Lothian Motorcoaches came together to showcase their expertise behind the wheel.

The standard of driving on display was outstanding, with only a few marks separating the finalists after a series of practical and theory assessments.

After careful consideration, David Ross was named Eve Coaches Driver of the Year, delivering an exceptional performance across all elements of the competition.

Brian Shankland claimed the Lothian Motorcoaches Driver of the Year title following an impressive showing in both the practical and theory tests.

David Cameron, Lothian’s Head of Operations, said: “Our Coach Driver of the Year competition showcases the exceptional professionalism and driving expertise of our teams at Eve Coaches and Lothian Motorcoaches.

“Day in, day out, our drivers deliver outstanding service for their customers, and this event provides a fantastic platform to demonstrate their technical skills and commitment to excellence, reflected in the consistently high scores achieved across the board.

“Congratulations to our winners, David Ross and Brian Shankland. I have no doubt they will go on to represent us with pride at the UK Coach Rally in Blackpool in April.”

David and Brian will now represent the company at the UK Coach Rally in Blackpool on 18 – 19 April, joined by runners-up Mark Charles (Lothian Motorcoaches) and Craig Easton (Eve Coaches).

Congratulations to David and Brian on their well-deserved wins, and best of luck to everyone representing the wider company at the finals in Blackpool.

Lothian colleagues raise £9,000 for local charities

Over the last year, Lothian colleagues have raised £9,000 for local charities in our community.

Colleagues can choose to deduct a small amount from their pay to be donated to the Lothian Buses Employees’ Charities Fund which helps supports its chosen beneficiaries to provide essential services for those in our local communities.

This year, the following 20 charities have received a share of the fund:

Action for Children (Gilmerton)	Life Care (formerly Edinburgh and Leith Age Concern)
Autism Initiatives UK (Number 6 One Stop Shop)	Marie Curie Hospice
Care for Carers	Music in Hospitals
Children 1st	Myeloma
Claymore Club	NARA – The Breathing Charity
Compass Therapy Support (formerly MS Therapy Centre)	Scottish Autism
Cruise Bereavement Care	Sight Scotland
Drum Riding Centre for the Disabled Trust	St Columba’s Hospice
Edinburgh Hospital Broadcasting Service	Tranent Day Centre
Enable (Edinburgh Branch)	Whale Arts

Some of the charities have since been in touch to explain just how invaluable each donation is to their service users. Read from St Columba’s Hospice Care and Scottish Autism below.

“On behalf of everyone at the hospice, I’d like to extend our heartfelt thanks for your generous donation. Your support will help grow our Compassionate Gardeners programme, which is currently training up a fantastic group of volunteers. Very soon, they’ll be out in the community, bringing comfort and connection to people living with life-limiting illnesses – so your grant couldn’t have come at a better time!”

St Columba’s Hospice Care

“Thank you – we are hugely grateful to have your continued support. Your donation will allow us to invest in our day service in Musselburgh. It is highly likely we will spend this donation on sensory equipment and activities for our service users. This will go such a long way within the service, boosting the mental health and wellbeing of the people we support as well as our amazing staff.”

Service 4
Minor timetable changes

Service 12
Revised route and timetable.

A revised route will operate via South Gyle Broadway (instead of South Gyle Crescent). This will provide more buses for the residents of South Gyle.

South Gyle Crescent/South Gyle Industrial Estate will no longer be served by Service 12. Analysis shows that customer numbers on this section are very low. Service 18 and the early morning service 22A will continue to serve South Gyle Crescent, with bus connections available at each end of South Gyle Cresent and bus, tram and train connections also available via the footpath to Edinburgh Park Station/Hermiston Gait.

Service 12 will also operate a full evening service. Evening journeys that currently terminate at Broomhouse Road will be extended to the Gyle Centre. On Monday to Friday and Saturday, earlier journeys will be introduced from Portobello and later journey to Portobello.

Where possible, journeys will be coordinated with Service 22 between Lothian Road and the Gyle Centre offering regular departures.

An extra bus will also be introduced to the timetable to improve reliability and frequency of the service, particularly during Monday to Friday peak times.

Service 15
Revised timetable.

Following customer feedback and analysis, an additional Monday to Friday journey will be introduced from Easter Bush to Morningside at 16:12 to help with demand on this corridor.

Customers travelling to Fairmilehead, Comiston and Morningside are encouraged to use this new journey to create additional capacity on the existing 16:02 journey for those travelling further into the city.

Service 17
Minor timetable changes

Service 22/22A
Revised route and timetable.

A revised route will operate via Stenhouse Drive, Gorgie Road, Chesser Avenue, Slateford Road, Angel Park Terrace to West Approach Road. Following customer requests, this will reinstate the bus link between Slateford Road and Edinburgh Park/Gyle Centre that had historically been provided by Service 35 and latterly Service 300.

Stevenson Drive, Balgreen Road and Stevenson Road will therefore no longer be served by Service 22, but will continue to be served by Services 1, 2 and 30.

For journeys between the Balgreen area and Edinburgh Park/Gyle Centre, we recommend:

Edinburgh Trams from Balgreen Tram stop.
Service 2 to Hermiston Gait, then transferring to Edinburgh Trams or to Services 32 or 36.
Service 1 to Saughton Tram stop and then transfer to Edinburgh Trams.
Service 1 and 2 to Stenhouse Drive and then transfer to Service 22.

There will also be a revised Monday to Friday and Saturday daytime frequency, with services operating every 30 minutes.

Where possible journeys will be coordinated with Service 12 between Lothian Road and Gyle Centre offering regular departures.

Each day, two early morning journeys will continue to operate as Service 22A via South Gyle Crescent.

Service 31
Revised route and timetable.

A revised route will serve West Craigs via Turnhouse Road and Craigs Road when infrastructure becomes available.

The addition of the bus gate on Turnhouse Road will ensure consistent journey times and a more reliable timetable for residents in East Craigs and West Craigs.

Service X47 journeys will be extended from Cammo to start/finish at East Craigs, providing an alternative connection to the city centre at peak times.

There will also be a revised route with Polton Mill journeys extended to Rosewell, part-replacing Service 46 which will be withdrawn. In addition to Service X31, this will provide a direct connection for Rosewell into Edinburgh city centre, all day, 7-days a week. Connections between Rosewell and Dalkeith will be available at Bonnyrigg Toll via Services 39 or 140/141.

The Monday to Friday morning school journey between Rosewell and Bonnyrigg will continue to operate, as Service 31, during term time. We will also introduce an additional journey Monday to Friday at 08:04 from Gilmerton Station Road to the West End to provide additional capacity along Lasswade Road.

Service X31
Revised stopping pattern and timetable.

Service X31 will operate via a revised stopping pattern. Buses will now stop at Gilmerton Dykes Street (Lasswade Road Crossroads) to improve connectivity with Lothian orbital routes provided by Services 7 and 18. Liberton Hospital, which closed at the end of 2025, will no longer be served by Service X31.

Service 33
Minor timetable changes

Service X33
Revised route and timetable.

In order to test customer demand for new local links, Service X33 will operate via a revised route with the service altered to start/finish at Loanhead, providing local links Monday to Friday at peak times via Lasswade, Bonnyrigg, Cockpen, Brixwold, The Bryans, Mayfield, Dalkeith Heights, Sheriffhall P&R and Danderhall then limited stop to Little France (for Royal Infirmary) and Edinburgh city centre.

This will maintain the peak time links between Bonnyrigg and Little France (for Royal Infirmary) and will introduce a direct connection between Brixwold and Edinburgh city centre, supplemented by new local links provided on Service 39.

The route between Newtongrange and Gorebridge will no longer be served, however more frequent journeys will be provided on Service 48 which continues to provide direct connections with the Royal Infirmary. Services 29 and X29 continue to provide direct connections with Edinburgh city centre.

Whitehouse Road/Aspen Drive will no longer be served due to extremely low customer demand.

The bus stop at Walter Scott Avenue will also be removed from Service X33 due to low customer demand.

Service 34
Minor timetable changes

Service 35
Minor timetable changes

Service 39 (NEW SERVICE)
This new local service will be introduced Monday to Saturday between Polton Mill and Dalkeith Campus, which part-replaces Services 46 and 139, following this route: Polton, Bonnyrigg, Cockpen, Hopefield, Brixwold, Tesco Hardengreen, Dalkeith, Woodburn, Dalkeith Campus/Heights.

This will improve direct links between south Bonnyrigg and Dalkeith with the growing housing development at Brixwold added to the bus network (Monday to Friday peak time connections will also be introduced for Brixwold on Service X33).

Coordinated with Services 140/141, this will provide up to 3 buses per hour between Dalkeith, Eskbank and Bonnyrigg, operating Monday to Friday and Saturday.

Journeys continue to be timed for the start and end of the school day at Dalkeith Campus.

The service no longer calls at Midlothian Community Hospital. Alternative stops are available on Eskbank Road for Services 140/141, only 100m from the hospital.

Service 46 (WITHDRAWN)
Service 46 will be withdrawn, part-replaced by Services 31, X31, X33, 39, 48, 140/141

Journeys between Bonnyrigg and Dalkeith – see Services 39, 140/140, X33
Journeys to/from Rosewell – see Services 31, X31

In May 2023, Service 46 was introduced as a partial replacement for service 49 in Midlothian to provide additional connectivity across the region and improve service reliability. While customer numbers have increased, they have failed to grow to the levels expected or required to sustain the cost of operating the service in the long term.

Service X47
Revised route and timetables. Journeys will be extended from Cammo to start/finish at East Craigs providing an alternative connection to the city centre at peak times.

Service 48
Revised route and timetables.

Service 48 will operate a revised route in Midlothian, no longer serving D’Arcy Road, Oak Place and Bogwood Road with recent changes to road speed limits in the local area necessitating a review of running times. Services 3 and X33 will continue to serve these areas.

Service N30

East Coast Buses

Following a full review of customer journeys including analysis of changes made in April 2025, there will be some further alterations to services. These changes reflect levels of customer demand and feedback from within the local community. Highlights include:

Revised Services 106/107/X6 with a more balanced Monday to Friday peak timetable between local and express journeys, including more journeys across the day for Western General Hospital.
Improved coordination of timetables on Sunday through Tranent, Prestonpans and Musselburgh to and from Edinburgh city centre.

There will be no change to the following services: X5, 120, 121, 123, 125, 126, 127 and 128.

The Monday to Friday additional school journey between Macmerry and Tranent will continue to operate during term time.

Additionally, following feedback there is revised a.m. arrival times in Haddington including a Monday to Friday journey at 8.25 and an earlier Saturday journey to the Western General is introduced.

Services X7 / 107

Services 140 / 141
Minor timetable changes Monday to Friday and Saturday to improve reliability with the introduction of an additional early Sunday morning journey.

Changes to our network in Midlothian

To make it easier to understand the planned changes in Midlothian, we have provided a breakdown by location.

Rosewell

To view timetable PDFs for each service, tap the headings below.

Service 31
Service 31 will be extended from Polton to Rosewell. This will provide a direct connection for Rosewell into Edinburgh city centre, all day, 7-days a week following requests by the local community.

The Rosewell service will operate every 30 minutes on Monday to Friday and on Saturday, and every 40 minutes on Sunday.
The last bus from Edinburgh city centre to Rosewell will depart South Bridge at 23:09.

Service X31
Service X31 will continue to offer a fast journey into the city centre during peak times on Monday to Friday.

Service 46 (WITHDRAWN)
Service 46 will be withdrawn. In May 2023, Service 46 was introduced as a partial replacement for Service 49 in Midlothian to provide additional connectivity across the region and improve service reliability. While customer numbers have increased, they have failed to grow to the levels expected or required to sustain the cost of operating the service in the long term.

Please note that the morning school Service 46 journey between Rosewell and Bonnyrigg will now operate as a Service 31.

Over the last 3 years the level of customer usage in Rosewell has remained consistent, however it is not at a level that can sustain two separate bus services – a service into Edinburgh and a local Midlothian service.

During this time, we have had a significant number of requests for a direct Rosewell to Edinburgh bus service, all day and all week. We are confident that this alteration now meets the expectations of the majority of bus users in Rosewell.

Service 39 (NEW SERVICE)
A new Service 39 will be introduced between Polton, Bonnyrigg and Dalkeith complementing Services 140/141. Services 31 and X31 offer connections to the Lothian network at Bonnyrigg Toll and Lasswade Road Crossroads.

For journeys between Rosewell and Eskbank/Dalkeith, we recommend using Service 31 to Bonnyrigg and then transferring onto Services 39, 140 or 141.
For journeys between Rosewell and Edinburgh Royal Infirmary, we recommend using Services 31 and X31 to Lasswade Road Crossroads and then transferring onto Services 7 or 18.

Bonnyrigg

To view timetable PDFs for each service, tap the headings below.

Service 31
Service 31 will be extended from Polton to Rosewell, following requests by the local community.

The terminal stop at Polton Cameron Crescent will no longer be used by Service 31 (except for a small number of morning journeys).
Except for some minor timetable changes, there are no changes to the Hopefield branch of Service 31
A new timetable with revised running times will improve service reliability

A revised timetable will be introduced on Service X31 to better coordinate with Service 31 and improve reliability. To improve connectivity to the wider Lothian orbital bus network, Lasswade Road Crossroads will now be observed by Service X31. To accommodate this additional stop, the lightly used stop at Liberton Hospital will be removed.

While we regret some customers will be impacted by the withdrawal of the service, we are making the following adjustments to the Bonnyrigg bus network.

Service 39
Service 39 will be introduced, operating every hour on Monday to Friday and on Saturday between Polton and Dalkeith Campus via Bonnyrigg Toll, Hopefield, Brixworld, Tesco Hardengreen, Dalkeith Town Centre and Woodburn.

Service X33
In order to test customer demand for new local links, Service X33 will be revised to serve Bonnyrigg, Cockpen and Brixworld before continuing to Edinburgh via Mayfield and Dalkeith.

The service will operate on Monday to Friday with four morning journeys and three afternoon journeys. This will create new links for Brixworld and Cockpen into Midlothian and Edinburgh. The change retains a direct link from Bonnyrigg to the Royal Infirmary (A7 stops) at key times.

Services 140/141
Services 140/141 will see an improved timetable offering better reliability, and an earlier Sunday morning journey.

Services 39 and 140/141 will be coordinated, providing up to 3 buses per hour between Dalkeith, Eskbank and Bonnyrigg, Monday to Friday and Saturday.

For journeys between Bonnyrigg and Edinburgh Royal Infirmary, we recommend:

Services 31 and X31 to Lasswade Road Crossroads, transferring onto Services 7 or 18.

The route will be altered in Mayfield, no longer serving D’Arcy Road, Oak Place and Bogwood Road with recent changes to road speed limits in the local area necessitating a review of running times (Services 3 and X33 will continue to serve these areas).

Service X33
Service X33 route between Newtongrange and Gorebridge will no longer be served, however more frequent journeys will now be provided on Service 48 which will provide direct connections with the Royal Infirmary, while Services 29 and X29 continue to provide direct connections with Edinburgh city centre.
