Go Cornwall Bus has taken over the operation of the services that had been run by the Travel Cornwall brand (Summercourt Travel Ltd.) as of this morning, 18 November.
The services run by Travel Cornwall are:
23 St Austell-Mevagissey-Gorran
28/31/428 St Austell-Eden-Lostwithiel
51 Veryan-Tregony-St Austell
66/466 Penryn-Truro
405 Fraddon-Bodmin
481/482 Polruan-Looe-Bodmin
484/485/494/495/496 Truro town services
493 Truro-Feock
These routes were run by Travel Cornwall under a sub-contract from Go Cornwall Bus who have the main contract with Cornwall Council to provide these taxpayer subsidised services. Now the services are being run directly by Go Cornwall Bus. Tracking software seems to indicate that most services are running normally this morning.
It is not known why this takeover occurred so suddenly, whether it was a considered decision by Summercourt Travel or whether it was forced by financial issues.
