Perhaps a new company (Vectis Bus) could take over routes 5, 7, 9 and 12. Route 5 would be converted to single-deck operation, using Enviro 200 Darts. Route 7 would use Enviro 400s, as it currently does, some HW62s as well as a few SN62s from MG in London. Route 9 via Fairlee would keep its Route 9 branding. It would use some HJ16s and some HF67s.
Route 9 via Staplers would be renumbered to Route 10. It would use HF58s, HF59s and some ex-University of Greenwich and ex-Stagecoach LX09s/LX59s. Route 12 would use some HJ16s, as well as some SN14s from PD, and some HF58s. Liveries to be posted soon!

Why would a new company be set up when SV do just fine as it is? |

Why would a new company be set up when SV do just fine as it is? To upgrade certain routes. |
