The Buchan Express is a series of bus routes starting in Aberdeen. It is operated by Stagecoach Bluebird.
History The Buchan Express brand was introduced in 2015, coinciding with the introduction of 17 new Plaxton Elite-i vehicles. The routes previously operated under the Buchan Link brand. At this time, the routes were carrying around 25,000 people per week.
Criticism The new coaches were criticised for multiple accessibility problems, despite meeting disability regulations. As a result, in 2017 the steps within the coaches were modified and additional bell pushes were added.
