Climate Action Strathaven first launched the bus service between Strathaven to Glasgow in October 2022 after concerns of poor transport links isolating members of the community
A vital bus service in South Lanarkshire that received £41,000 of funding from a nearby windfarm and a leading Scottish charity has announced plans to expand its services.
The 3C bus service has expanded to offer twice as many services between Strathaven, Stonehouse & Glasgow. Alison Harley, programme manager for Climate Action Strathaven said: “The impact the bus service has had on our community cannot be understated, it has been genuinely transformative. “Like everything we do at Climate Action Strathaven, a massive element of this project is to cut emissions, promoting active travel in the area. Those values align perfectly with Banks Renewables and Paths for All, so we’re over the moon to be getting such important support from them both.”
The project was supported by national walking charity Paths for All which aims to give everyone the opportunity to walk to create a happier, healthier, greener Scotland. The project received funding through Banks Renewables' Kype Muir Community Fund , which was set up to provide financial assistance to community groups, voluntary organisations and communities local to the areas surrounding its Kype Muir wind project.
