She says it's a vital link but is just using it to bash Stagecoach and not said anything I can see about maintaining it.
If SNE were that bothered about the route and have been letting NECA know about its predicament for 2 or 3 years, then this cancellation is on them.

They've chose not to and I do not think it should be down to NECA to fill the gaps left by a private company unwilling or unable to do something about it.
