Thank you for your patience during the recent bus situation

The Council would like to thank the public for their patience and understanding as the Council responded to the closure of GHA Coaches this summer.

Members of Denbighshire’s Cabinet have endorsed the action taken by the Council’s Passenger Transport team to restore school bus and public bus services in the wake of the collapse of GHA Coaches Ltd in July.

The Company closed on July 13th and the Council’s Passenger Transport team worked around the clock to restore school transport services by finding alternative providers at short notice.

Significant effort was also made to ensure that all communities served by a bus continued to benefit from some form of service in the days and weeks that followed.

Councillor David Smith, Cabinet Lead Member for Environment, said: “I must pay tribute to the team for pulling out all the stops to sort out school buses for the following day and to get the public bus service up and operating as quickly as possible.

“These were certainly testing times and the superb effort of staff meant that disruption to services was kept to an absolute minimum.  The public was also extremely supportive and we thank them for their understanding and patience”.
