Stories are emerging of people scrambling to leave appointments early, hospital staff adjusting shifts, and even a nurse with mobility issues considering quitting due to the grueling commute. While Lothian Buses claims the route was discontinued based on low ridership and offers alternatives, locals say the changes have severed critical connections to hospitals, groceries, and family — leaving many feeling stranded and frustrated.
