BUS service changes will come into force across Dunfermline and West Fife tomorrow (Monday).
Stagecoach previously confirmed they were "revising" some of their commercially operated services to tie in with changes to school services.
They said "significant changes" have been made to the city's network to cater for travel to the new Dunfermline Learning Campus, with the new St Columba's and Woodmill high schools opening this week.
The changes across the area will see: Services 1/1A will replace the current 1 and 2, and will run between Dunfermline city centre and Fife Leisure Park/Learning Campus via Brucefield, Abbeyview, Duloch Park and Amazon.
Discussions have taken place with Amazon to confirm all shift times are accommodated with this change.
Services 2/2A will replace the current 3 and 5, and run between Dunfermline city centre and Fife Leisure Park/Learning Campus via Woodmill, Touch, Abbeyview, Duloch Park, Lapwing Drive and Pitcorthie (2) or the reverse (2A).
Service 3 replaces the current service 2 between Dunfermline city centre and Townhill.
