East Lothian Council subsidises a number of bus services on routes where no alternative route exists, and where commercial bus operators would not be able to cover their costs if they delivered a service. Where a need is identified, the Council may subsidise a commercial operator to cover a whole route, or part of a route at a particular time of the day.
Do we have need for a public bus service to Morham and Garvald? It is difficult to live here without owning a car? Are there non-drivers, like teenagers or older people who would benefit? Could we see a situation where families could manage with one less car?

You may have seen the damage to the footpath beside the burn from the flooding last week. Phillip White, chair of the Garvald and Morham Community Council, has been in touch with East Lothian Council. They have inspected the damage and will repair the path with additional hardcore to make the path safe as soon as possible.
