The arrest comes after a spate of antisocial behaviour saw the transport company cancel all of their services after 7pm back in March.
This decision was made after an incident where youths threw stones at a bus near the Royal Infirmary Hospital.
Some services were again cancelled on the 12 and 18 April due to a repeat of similar behaviour.
Edinburgh City Councillors and Police Scotland have been speaking out against the attacks, urging parents to keep an eye on their children.
