STAGECOACH has agreed with Oxfordshire County Council
to run many of the bus routes previously operated by RH Transport, which is set
to enter administration.
The following local services will
be provided by Stagecoach tomorrow and on Saturday, with passengers being able
to travel free of charge:
X8: Chipping Norton - Kingham -
Wychwoods (Kingham Railbus), but this route will only run between Chipping
Norton and Kingham railway station.
X9: Witney – Charlbury - Chipping
Norton (except late-night services)
No services will be provided on
Friday or Saturday on these routes:
C1/T1: Charlbury Railbus
Rodney Rose, the council’s deputy leader and
cabinet member for transport, said: “I’m grateful to both Stagecoach and the
council’s transport team. A lot of hard work has gone in during the course of
today to bring this temporary arrangement about.Ex Mayor Mike Dixon lost his job when Worth's lost their contract to RH, I wonder if Mike will be offered his old job back?
