was up and its on VOSA with arriva showing a timetable change when in fact they have lost the tender

519 bolton-johnson fold
same as above people

can anyone confirm who now has these tenders (so soon will do) as no timetable change for first as of yet

Well, Maytree gained some tenders from Arriva in April (273, 561/562) and First have been bidding for lots of tenders in recent months, plus they run the Mon-Sat daytime services, so there's a good chance it'll be one of those two.

Other contenders would be SLT (Bury would be new territory for them), Rossendalebus and the outsider would be someone like Tyrer Bus.

May get answers in the next couple of weeks on VOSA and then towards the end of the month from the TfGM Committee meeting.
