Operation of First West Yorkshire's X26/ X27 routes (Leeds - Thorpe Park) was temporarily taken over by CT Plus at the end of June. The half-hourly service to a new edge-of-city development currently requires two buses, although when launched in autumn 2018, used six route-branded Wright StreetDecks running on a 15min frequency. Both First and CT Plus posted photos on social media, to show customers that Enviro200 MMCs in CT Plus's normal livery are now being used on the service. They can issue and accept the full range of First tickets. First has previous experience of subcontracting, with operation of much of route 64 (Leeds-Aberford) passed to Connexions Buses in 2018. Connexions took over journeys on a commercial basis in February 2020, continuing to issue and accept First tickets, but also offering returns for customers just using the 64. First can still be seen on the route in the evenings, on Sundays, and a single weekday morning journey. |
