During my recent contact it appears that final decisions have yet to be made on future vehicle allocations. Clearly the latest arrivals - the Enviro 300's will come into the equation. Also in addition to the 3 Eclipses there is also a Dart in Line 9 livery. Since the changes in the 9 / X9 only 2 vehicles are now required.

The good thing is we shall soon see what happens - next week!!!

GHA are contractually obliged to provide vehicles that are '55' plate or newer on the recently gained Flintshire contracts for services, 8, 9/X9 and 14.

Well some companies blindly bid for contracts without having the specified age of vehicles available. The trick then is to allocate them to different county contracts so that there is occasional compliance in different places. Unfortunately for these companies the local authorities have now woken up to this and financial deductions are more commonplace
