Presumably Rotala could re-bid for those if they so wish?

Vantage as I understand it is only until March 2021 then its due to be re-tendered anyway, presume then it will transfer back to someone with a base at this end (Stagecoach, Rotala, Arriva) and Rusholme will close permanently.

Guess future expansion could come from finding holes in the network that need filling, and there are probably quite a few, one example could be extending the 695 Leigh - Bolton Hospital onward to Bolton, thus re-establishing a direct link between Bolton and Tyldesley and Astley and introducing another service between Bolton and Bolton General Hospital.
