I wonder what has changed… the tender is due to run for another year before all/most of North Yorkshire’s contracts come up for retender next April.Not quite - the NYCC tenders in the Scarborough area are now not due for another four years. This year was the review year.
I would assume the X4 will be linked to the 95 changes as some X4 buses also do 95s.

Arriva only submitted a conforming option for the 96 this time around, as the 95 is going hourly (and would no longer work).
The X4 is the Sunday frequency increase, which has been missing since 2019.
