21/07/08 - Aberdeen City to scrap Dial a Bus Service

<back>

Aberdeen City council are withdrawing their support for the Dial a Bus Service from November making a saving of �30,000 this financial year.

The council have been accused of penny-pinching by opposition councillors, but the SNP-Lib Dem administration have described Dial a Bus as a “major expense”.�

The decision was made despite consultation with Shopmobility Aberdeen, the Disability Advisory Group, the Grampian Society for the Blind and Aberdeen Action on Disability, who all backed the scheme.� ��

This is another blow to people with disabilities in Aberdeen - Choices Day Centre for disabled people was closed a few weeks ago as part of the Council’s drive to cut �50million from their budget.�
