GCT might drive people from the bus network due to there small network and no ability to connect with any of there services to other locations.
Its the same if the 82 ran by Stagecoach.
It's very much a double edged sword. Because on the one hand operators withdrawing their services commercially and winning the contracts back themselves is a bit cheeky, but then, for example, if the 18/32/35 had all gone to GCT it could be argued that would be worse for passengers.
