Bus operator The Go Ahead Group has expanded in the South West with the acquisition of Exeter-based Dartline for an undisclosed sum.
Under the Go South West umbrella, which also includes the Plymouth CityBus, Go Devon Bus and Go Cornwall Bus brands, the group will maintain the East Devon transport firm’s workforce of almost 120 staff as part of the deal.
Dartline, which currently operates a fleet of 84 buses, coaches and special education needs taxis across a mix of commercial routes and contracted services for Devon County Council, will continue under the same brand.
