The news which has come as quite of a shock this afternoon is that one of the independents will cease trading from the end of service tonight. Tates Travel of Barnsley have slowly been cutting back their services after Island Fortitude run the company into the ground several years back, never the less since they became independently owned again they have put up an impressive fight to keep their services running as best they could.
The large majority of Tates' fleet was improved over the last 6 years, being fully DDA compliant with a large amount of newly purchased vehicles. There is no news yet as to where they will go, although the newer ones will be snapped up quickly, and none of the services have yet to be covered - although it is my understanding that emergency cover may be provided for the schools services by Stagecoach or Arriva
