Second time theyve threatened withdrawal of the 62, maybe the council should offer the tender elsewhere

Quote from: hlliwmai on September 12, 2023, 10:55:16 PMWould be interesting to see IF these routes get picked up other operator(s) I have 3 in mind but 2 of them are extreme wildcards but anything is possible


(1)  Arriva.... Could it be possible to see them operating in Cannock again that would be quite odd to see

(2)  Diamond.... Could it be also possible for them to start operating in Cannock, I could only assume if this did happen it would operate via the Burton depot

(3) Select.... Obviously this is the sister company to Chaserider so they are probably most plausible to pick these routes up but it is whether they would want them
Just to point out again... select are NOT a sister company to Chaserider!

Considering that Julian Peddle has a majority share in Select and that both companies come under the Centrebus Group umbrella sure it is...

How does Julian Peddle have a majority share in Select when Ben Brown owns 74% ?

Julian Peddle has a MINORITY stake in Select Bus, not a majority. He also had a minority stake in Midland Classic prior to its sale to Rotala.  However Select is not part of Centrebus Group nor a sister company to Chaserider just as Midland Classic wasn't.

11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath
