New A8 shuttle bus considered
29.10.08
A shuttle bus taking passengers to and from Edinburgh Airport could be established on the A8 under plans being considered by BAA, the Evening News reports. The shuttle would better link the airport to bus services running along the A8 corridor, between Glasgow and Edinburgh, cutting journey times and encouraging more people to use public transport.
The airport has launched a feasibility study into a new public transport interchange on the motorway. Under the new plans, a small bus stop or terminal would be created along the A8, that would allow passengers to be dropped off and picked up by an airport shuttle bus.
Gordon Dewar, Edinburgh Airport managing director, told the newspaper: ‘We feel there could be more done to improve access for passengers coming from the west. An interchange may help better connect those services that are already running along the A8 to the airport.’
