First Glasgow is the largest bus company serving the Greater Glasgow area in, Scotland. It forms part of FirstGroup, a company operating transport services across the British Isles and in North America. The company operates within the area covered by the Strathclyde Partnership for Transport, a public body responsible for helping to co-ordinate public transport services in the Greater Glasgow area. It runs around 118 services, has a fleet of over 1,000 buses, and employs over 2800 drivers.[1]
History[]
First Glasgow was created through FirstGroup's buyout of the former Strathclyde Buses (created from the former Greater Glasgow Passenger Transport Executive bus fleet, formerly the municipal Glasgow Corporation Transport), which had itself recently bought out the former Kelvin Central Buses (an amalgamation of Kelvin Scottish and Central Scottish, owned by the state-owned Scottish Bus Group).
First Glasgow has two operator's licences:-
First Glasgow No 1 Limited. Company registered in Scotland No. SC097299. [2] - the former Strathclyde Buses licence.
First Glasgow No 2 Limited. Company registered in Scotland No. SC127012. [2] - the former Kelvin Central Buses licence.
Depots[]
As of 2018, First Glasgow currently operates out of five depots.
- Glasgow (Cathcart Rd, Caledonia) - headquarters
- Dumbarton (Birch Road)
- Glasgow (South Street, Scotstoun)
- Hamilton (Glasgow Road, Blantyre)
- Overtown (Castlehill Road)
Services[]
First Greater Glasgow mainly run services in Greater Glasgow and Lanarkshire areas of Strathclyde. However, some services do run outside of these areas. It was one of the first bus operators to introduce an "overground", a colour-coded set of bus routes with route branding on the bus exteriors and timetables. As of 2006, route branding has been removed from buses but remained on timetables until mid 2008.

The service is free for passengers with valid rail tickets. This service runs on behalf of First ScotRail and SPT.
500 Glasgow Shuttle[]
The 500 Glasgow Shuttle is a direct express service from Buchanan Bus Station to Glasgow International Airport operated under contract from BAA. The service operates via the key business and hotels district and within walking distance of the main rail termini before joining the M8 for the direct run to the Airport. It runs 24 hours a day, 364 days a year, with a frequency of 10 minutes throughout the day and a less frequent service overnight. The service was previously run by Arriva as the Glasgow Flyer.[5]

The 747 AirLink is a less direct service to Glasgow International Airport than the 500 Glasgow Shuttle. Designed to serve the western suburbs of Glasgow, it currently departs from Buchanan Bus Station stance 44 and travels to the airport via Partick and Braehead.[6] In 2015, the route had it's number changed to 77, with services stopping at the Q.E.U Hospital.
