Kelty Coaches, which ran a few school and works contracts, and a local service, decided to retire, and rather than risk closing the business if the OFT didn't clear the deal, Stagecoach agreed to take on all staff and routes, with the worknigs being divided up between Cowdenbeath, Dunfermline, and Wellwood depots. Buses to do the workings either came from the reserve fleet, or the diagram was merged with another diagram, such as a primary school contract, which was now covered by a Double decker also doing a High School contract. Basically, the staff and routes moved to Stagecoach, with the owners of Kelty coaches then selling the premises (now owned by Shred it), and the buses, then obviously liquidating the business and winding it up. What it does guarantee, and this is the same in the case of JPT, is continuity for staff and passengers. There is no disruption to service. |
