There will be a disruption to bus services during the resurfacing works on the B8006 at Lochyside, Fort William between Farmfoods and Castle Drive.

Starting on Wednesday 29 November 2023 until Friday 1 December 2023, bus stops at Farmfoods, Old School Court and Glenmallie Road will not be served by any buses between 9am and 5pm due to the restrictions imposed on the affected section.

Alternative bus collection/drop off locations for passengers are at existing adjacent bus stops at the Co-op and at Fort William Medical Centre, as detailed on the plan. There is also a temporary bus stop at Glendessary Street junction.

The revised service turns in Caol and enters/exits Caol via the western junction of the B8006/A830 during these times.

Out with these times, services operate as normal. Noticing detailing these changes to service have been erected at affected bus stops.

The Highland Council and Breedon thank you for your patience and understanding during these works and apologise for any inconvenience caused.
