We’re joining forces with Friends of the Earth Scotland and The Poverty Alliance to host this Scotland Demands Better Buses online meeting on Wednesday 25 February 2026, 6:30pm.
Please come along to hear from people taking action for better buses across Scotland and find out what you can do to help in the run-up to May’s election.
Safe, reliable and affordable buses are essential to connect our communities. Buses are a lifeline, not a luxury. The need to cut climate pollution and congestion in our towns and cities also demands more buses.
But Scotland’s bus network is on the brink of collapse with more routes and jobs cut every year and fares spiralling.
Private bus companies are making millions from this broken system.
Scotland’s buses used to be owned publicly. We can get public control back over our buses so that they meet the needs of our communities.
Speakers include:
- Ellie Harrison, Susie Wood & Paul Shaw, Better Buses for Strathclyde
- Laura Moodie, Dumfries & Galloway Bus Users Group
- David Eyre, The Poverty Alliance
Chaired by Ric Lander, Friends of the Earth Scotland
Everyone is welcome – whether you are fighting for buses in your area already, or want to find out more about what is at stake.
