Bus service to continue as normal with new operator

05 March 2024

Residents will have no break in service as the 59/60 bus service will be operated by Stagecoach from 11 March. 

In February, West Northamptonshire Council was made aware that Uno would no longer operate the route after 10 March. 

The Council has worked closely with operators to ensure there is no break in this service, with Stagecoach now contracted to run this route, connecting Guilsborough, Welford and Market Harborough.

We are delighted that Stagecoach will be operating the 59 / 60 bus service from 11 March. This service provides essential connectivity for residents, shoppers and local students, and it is great news that there will be a smooth continuation and no gap in buses running. We look forward to continuing to work with Stagecoach.Cllr Phil Larratt, Cabinet Member for Environment, Transport, Highways and Waste at West Northamptonshire Council

We are excited to be running these new routes on behalf of West Northamptonshire Council. These additional services further expand the Stagecoach bus network, connecting us to new areas and communities within Northamptonshire. We look forward to welcoming passengers onboard.Mark Whitelocks, Managing Director Stagecoach Midlands
