As for Maytree, MCT have become the major shareholder, so nothing should change. Apparently MD Gary Hawthorn will continue to have a role in the running of the company.
Does anyone know roughly how long the Rochdale services will stay with MCT? As there are often TfGM tenders around April/ early May, I think these could be until April 2014.
Well all i know is 3 drivers used TUPE to come from Tyrers to MCT... God knows how long it will last but the kingsway link service is 5 years. I assume they have it for the remaining time which tyrers had it for

I would think your right, I'm told these tenders have 'officially' been given to MCT on emergency basis only so they will run until the contracts would normally end.
I was always under the impression mct bought the operation and therefore bought the contracts off them...i dont know how tenders work when the company changes hands... May both be right
