Edinburgh Electric Bus Breaks Down | Edinburgh News
Description
An electric bus in Edinburgh just broke down in the middle of a busy intersection, causing a traffic jam and sparking public frustration. This isn’t the first time Lothian has deployed electric buses—they’ve been part of the fleet since 2017, including new double-decker models in 2024, aimed at quieter rides and better driver visibility. Locals shared videos of the stranded bus, which had been sitting there since around 4 p.m., raising questions about how long it would take to get it towed. The incident highlights the irony of eco-friendly tech failing in plain sight. Lothian Buses has been contacted for details on the breakdown and cleanup plan, and we’ll keep you updated as more information emerges.
