Not entirely unexpected news that Geldards Coaches in Leeds have entered administration - with services ceasing and now not operating. However Metro have found the majority of their contracted services new operators, albeit temporarily. All of these are school contracts, with all day service 711 (White Rose Centre - Bradford via Pudsey) and peak service X11 still awaiting new operators to be confirmed.
