Hi
Thought it would be a good idea to clear a few things up (saves all the speculation), we are pleased to have been awarded the above contracts and have (or are in the process of) adding to the fleet with the following
2 * Enviro 200's (ex Tates Travel)
2 * Optare Solo (ex weardale)
2 * Dennis Dart (ex go ahead London via Procters)
3 * Mellor Orion + - yet to be delivered as currently being built.
With regards drivers we have spent the past few months recruiting and training using our training bus (so far with a 100% practical test pass rate which means we have enough drivers + extra to start the work on the 25th July.
I hope that helps !!
