East Yorkshire
The company has temporary closed its depots at Pocklington, Elloughton, Withernsea and Bridlington will all remaining services now being operated from Hull and Scarborough depots. Go North East Like East Yorkshire a number of depots will temporarily be closed here and we understand the impact here is severe with almost two thirds of the fleet being mothballed. From the details we have seen that means that 422 vehicles from an operational fleet of 666 have been parked up and delicenced. Stagecoach UK Bus We do not intend to list delicenced and mothballed vehicles in Fleet Ramblings for the individual operating companies but will highlight then, where we have details, on the individual allocation documents as they are updated.
