Buses around Plymouth Predictions for 2016

Good evening everyone

Today I would like to share my predictions for 2016.

Bus Companies:
Plymouth Citybus
- Seeing two B7RLEs (108 & 109) and some more Darts enter the swoops livery
- Some more buses (new or second hand) enter the fleet and maybe even some ADL Enviro 200MMC/400MMCs. If there are any more second hand buses, I predict they will be around 5-7 years old.

Stagecoach South West
- A greater presence in Plymouth
- ADL Enviro 400MMCs for the Gold and X38 (whether they'd be ones that are already in the fleet or new ones)
- Another 'Gold' route but this time within Plymouth

Target Travel
- Possibility on taking on at least 1 new route
- Hopefully some more buses, I wouldn't mind seeing some newer ADL Enviro 200s and Optare Solos

Other Independents
- Jacketts Coaches: The 13 won't be operated by them at the end of the year. 
- Tally Ho & Countrybus: No real difference

And other predictions

New coach station
- Should hopefully be around by end of the year

The train station
- Hopefully at least some plans of what a refurbished station should look like

Buses around Plymouth
- More photos and presence at various bus related events around Plymouth

The answers will be revealed in late 2016/early 2017. Stay tuned for the answers then.
