There's a legal obligation to accept the lowest bid, they can't just pick and choose, it's how tendering works. Right or wrong.
If I was Stagecoach I'd be binning it too, it's not worth the hassle for Saturdays and Sundays for the next 8 months or whatever it is. Be interesting to know if they bid - at all. Looking at tracking today it appears they've outright refused to run anything through the tunnel at all, for most the day.
