There are a number of useful websites that make using public transport easier; as well as being “greener” and more interactive, you don’t have to scrape your bus/ train etc in the morning, and you can relax with a book/ catch up on work/ daydream/talk to someone etc etc on your commute!!
“Traveline” tells you how to get anywhere from anywhere within the UK using any combination of public transport- you can plan your journey, download timetables, and see how different transport options link up. See;

Lothian Buses have gone one step further- you can get live information on when your bus is coming and decide whether to have that extra cup of coffee or not. See

You can search by street /postcode to find your local bus stop code. You can even get up-to-date information sent to your mobile!
