Route number 15 was formerly allocated to a route via Union Street between the beach and either Craigiebuckler or Airyhall.[2] In July 2022, this route was withdrawn as part of a wider timetable change that saw a new route 15 introduced between Countesswells and Balnagask.[3][4] The changes were met with criticism as it left Footdee without a bus service.[5]
The new route to Countssells was also criticised as local residents claimed that Countesswells Road is too narrow for buses to pass other vehicles safely.[6] First conducted a site visit in July 2022 and stated they deemed the road to be suitable.[7][8][9]
