Stagecoach in the Fens

9th June 2008

Stagecoach took over the operations of Cavalier Contracts, which traded as both Huntingdon & District and Cavalier in April 2008. Initially the route network was continued, it was then simplified, creating several new links across the fens. In the last part of 2008 Stagecoach downgraded Long Sutton depot to an outstation and surrendered lots of the fenland services. Most of the acquired vehicles have recently been withdrawn with the entry into service of the 20 guided busway buses. As many of the newer vehicles inherited from Cavalier were leased, these have returned to the lessors when the lease expired.
