A new operator will take on the W8 service when the current contract ends, says authority.
A council has said "final steps" were being taken to secure a new provider for a threatened bus service.
This is the second time North Northamptonshire Council has stepped in to save the W8 service - it paid £14,000 to a new provider in 2021. The W8 has been operated by Stagecoach Midlands since 2021, following Grant Palmer's withdrawal from the service after it decided it was unviable. Matt Binley, the council’s executive member for highways and travel, said: "I’m delighted that we’ve been able to work with another bus company to help find a solution and we’re committed to making sure the service will not be interrupted."In a bid to provide better public transport, North Northamptonshire Council said it would be introducing a Bus Improvement Plan, which will be "targeted towards actions which will deliver the best overall outcomes for bus services".
