The main highlights this week are the closing notices for what's left of Target Travels network. I have yet to see any replacements for any of these services by anyone else.
As usual please click through on the Licence number for more details and full route histories on the PTBS web site. Links to Traveline and other timetables and maps are provided below where possible, but always check with the operators own web site for up to date information before you travel!

There was a note on Tally Ho!'s website dated Friday 7th February. The state that they have been working with Target Travel and will take over all their remaining commitments from 16th February, so that all Target Travel customers will have continuity of service. Presumably this will be reflected in the next Traffic Notice. As well as its Kingsbridge depot, Tally Ho! apparently also has a base in Plympton next to Target Travel's, and some staff and vehicles will be taken on. Tally Ho! of course already has the Devon County Council contract for routes 49/94 contract February.
