TRAVEL: Getting Around Ayrshire by Bus After Trains Cancelled

With Trains cancelled between Kilwinning & Ayr until further notice after yesterday’s severe fire at Troon Railway station, we have put together a handy guide for most Ayrshire Bus services along the route of the busy railway line that will help keep you on the move.

With Scottish government guidelines still in place around social distancing, it's likely some buses will be full on a reduced capacity, if this is the case the bus will show "Sorry, bus full social distancing" on the front display, the bus will not stop unless passengers are alighting. Please note ticket acceptance is not in place on any of these routes.
