They won’t use the MCT name. Look at how they operate elsewhere. Hackney community transport is a charity transport group, they originally used this to bid on TFL tenders then once successful set up CT plus which is a seperate arm.
If and it’s only an IF HCT ended up with Oldham they would run it as a completely commercial entity not a charitable one which MCT still is. I would imagine they would leave mct to go for smaller work they do at the moment and they would go for the bigger stuff.

They are very very keen to get a bigger slice in Manchester. Allegedly they were the successful purchaser of Rosso until Transdev stepped in with a slightly bigger offer 50 minutes before bidding closed.
