It was announced on 23rd February that Stagecoach in Oxfordshire and Stagecoach West are to be merged into a single operating company, as yet to be named. The new operating company will be headquartered in Gloucester and will have operations stretching from London (Oxford Tube) into South Wales. The combined fleet will comprise 520 vehicles and will employ 1,370 staff.
Stagecoach in Oxfordshire has depots in Oxford, Banbury and Witney and outstations in Bicester, Chipping Norton and Grove. Stagecoach West has depots in Bristol, Cheltenham, Gloucester, Ross-on-Wye, Stroud and Swindon as well as an outstation at Coleford.
In the meantime an historical anomaly will be cleared up from 28th February, when the operating licence for Banbury depot and registrations for bus routes 200, 488/9, 500, 505, B3, B5, B9, H4 and S4 will transfer from Midland Red (South) to Thames Transit Ltd.
