Whats this on ?

One of the Nottingham pages, in part of an article about CT4N. But it is a comment, rather than in the article itself.

Arguably a downgrade for L14 customers and L2 customers, a somewhat upgrade for 20 customers

Surprising though they have managed to resource it so quickly. Still, three DF Streetlites might bolster the fleet.

Yeah it's good on EMCCA to be fair, but the local link network has definitely taken a hit. Who knows what's in store for the 19

I wonder if they will operate these services from Manvers Street

Very much doubt it as they don't deal with Notts and Derby over at Nottingham and the depot is very full already from what I heard.

Maybe some interworking with a school contract?

Manvers Street hasn’t got the capacity

Quite the downgrade i'd say. for example the derby road to wollaton link the L2 provided was used by quite a few people but is now gone.

Nottingham Minibus & Coaches will be taking over the Nottsbus 300 service between Lowdham and Newark from Monday 7th September.

Nottingham Post article on the 300 being saved

For the past few years CT4N provided Nottingham High School with all their transport needs, with a broad network of home-school routes as well as to/from their sports pitches located on Hucknall Road opposite City Hospital. It was not uncommon to find the specially liveried high school double decker hanging around that area.

Having checked the (quite extensive) 'transport' section of the school's website, a service map and timetables for the 2026/27 year are all marked with CT4N's logo*, which seems to suggest they had retained/renewed the contract before going out of business. It also references CT4N's contact details for lost property etc. (Here's a link to that page)

As far as I can tell, no-one else has picked up this work? Since the new term began I've been out a couple of times to check what's running on the route local to me, with the answer being absolutely nothing.

*as of this week it appears the logo has been deleted from all the timetables/maps, but it was there last week.

Sharpes of Nottingham (who previously operated services before CT4N took over) took over the services at short notice.
