Festive bus times now available

3 weeks ago Mon 18th Nov 2024

Plan your Christmas shopping sprees, festive gathering and celebrations with ease with your Borders Buses journey planner. 

From 23 December to 05 January, our buses will be running with a slightly adjusted schedule. Our hardworking team will be enjoying some well-deserved rest on Christmas Day, Boxing Day, and 01 and 02 January so there will be no bus services on these days. 

To avoid any last-minute panics, grab a festive timetable on the bus or download the Borders Buses app. The app keeps you informed with real-time tracking, journey planning, and service updates.
