discussion focused on buses leaving early or not stopping at all at the stop,

on issues previously raised regarding the joining up of the service from the
Hunter’s Quay ferry and reinstatement of the Cowal Games service to Strachur.
Outcome
The Forum;
1.
agreed to ask Officers to write to Colin Craig of
West Coast Motors regarding the outstanding responses;
2.
requested that Martin Arnold provide an update on
outstanding action regarding the bus stop; and

Motors, reports that the bus service was leaving early at Kames and thereafter
to report back on this to the Forum.

The
Community Transport Officer had spoken to the Roads department who advised that
due to current commitments the matter cannot be looked at, however the
Community Transport Officer will contact them again in April to establish when
it would be possible to put a yellow bus stop cage down on the road at the bus
shelter. In the meantime West Coast Motors
confirmed their drivers will stop at the bus shelter, not the Post
Office, however they noted that locals tended to wait at the Post Office for
the bus.
Outcome
It was agreed that Kilfinan Community Council will promote the use of the bus shelter with residents.

this was for bus markings to be painted as close to the shelter as practically possible
and the sign to be installed where the lines are painted.

Public
Transport and Roads department to progress the above request.
