The council ARE RETAINING THE DEPOT SITE AT HASLINGDEN, whilst Transdev will acquire and develop the Rochdale site and some staff and buses will transfer to their existing Burnley and Blackburn depots.
Which part of that is difficult to grasp?

Well, none of that precludes the possibility that it might still be used by Transdev, does it? It says that the council are keeping the depot as a commercial investment - i.e. to make money from it. Well, given that it's currently a bus depot, surely the easiest way to make money out of it is to rent it out as a bus depot!
