Arriva is owned by Deutsche Bahn which provides state-owned public transport in Germany. Stagecoach is now owned by Deutsche Bank. Neither of these two operators provide bus services in the UK for the love of it. If there wasn't a profit to be made they would sell up. Both Arriva and Stagecoach now transfer their profits made in the UK to Germany - where public transport is valued far more than in the UK - which currently support a nation-wide Deutschland Ticket costing approximately £40 per month that allows unlimited travel on all local bus and train services. |
