- Regrettably, we can no longer operate routes 5 and X52 due to the challenging financial strains our business is currently facing. Like most operators in the UK, financial support from local authorities is very limited and both routes were operated on a commercial basis. Unfortunately, the levels of patronage have been well below what is required to ensure it’s sustainable.
