For 100 years, Edinburgh’s Night Buses have adapted through war, deregulation, financial crises and even a global pandemic. Once designed for shift workers, they now power a 24/7 city – connecting places as far as Dunbar, Livingston and Penicuik.
The network is not just a transport system; it’s a city asset, enabling nightlife, events and social life to thrive. With more than 800,000 annual passengers, it remains one of Edinburgh’s greatest strengths – an example envied by many other cities.
