CHESHIRE East Council has set up a new company to run its transport services.


Transport Service Solutions Limited (TSS), which began operating on January 1, 2015, will coordinate and deliver the Council’s public, home to school and social care transport.


The contract between the Council and TSS was signed in front of the transport team at an event to mark the occasion at Crewe Lyceum Theatre.


Cheshire East Council Leader, Councillor Michael Jones, said: “ASDVs boost enterprise, innovation and value for money. They enable us to improve services and put residents first.


“They are part of the ongoing revolution in the way we deliver our services.”


This comes after several residents raised concerns last year about the bus service in Middlewich after Cheshire East Council changed its service provider.
