Trossachs Trundler 2010

The Trossachs Trundler summer bus service has been withdrawn due to lack of demand and has been replaced by a Demand Responsive Transport (DRT) service, which offers a taxi-type service at a bus fare. You can find an explanation of DRT HERE.

Briefly, this substitute for the Trossachs Trundler route and also a wider area works a bit like a taxi service but at public transport rates. It is operated in Tthe Trossachs area by Aberfoyle Coaches.
The fares structure and the booking system can be found on the Aberfoyle Coaches website.

More detail on the Trossachs DRT area can be found at www.stirling.gov.uk/drt_trossachs_10_03_29-4.pdf

If the Trossachs Trundler service is re-introduced it will be announced on this page.
