Festive period public bus timetable reminder

Orkney Islands Council has published information on bus timetables over the upcoming festive period.

Members of the public are asked to note that no services will be running on Christmas Day (25 December 2022), Boxing Day (26 December 2020), New Year’s Day (1 January 2021) and 2 January 2021.

Additionally, on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve services will only remain in operation until 9pm.

The only exception to this is the Service X10 which will run a normal service on 26 December and 2 January.

Over the remainder of the festive period, services will run to the normal ‘school holiday’ timetable as published on the Council website. 

The Council’s transport office will be unmanned between 24 December 2020 and 4 January 2021 inclusive. Transport queries during this time should be made directly with the operators.

Alternatively, queries can be e-mailed to the Council's transport team where they will be picked up after 4 January 2021. Meantime the team wishes everyone a safe and happy Christmas.

Full details including operator contact details are available on the Council’s Festive Arrangements page.
