The Rise and Fall of CT Plus Yorkshire

Rare and previously unpublished images documenting the popular regional bus operator CT Plus Yorkshire.

---

Initially operating on contract work, CT Plus Yorkshire had a huge impact during its last decade of significant expansion before closure in summer 2022. From its core network of school and accessible transport work, the company was responsible for keeping the region moving by filling the void left by other bus companies, with the main focus of community transport at its heart. This allowed many local communities to continue to be connected even when profits were not in the company’s favour.

This book takes a behind-the-scenes look at the main point of expansion for this operator, reminisces over its major growth, and looks at what went wrong and how gaps were filled when the operation closed.
