  • CC Act to Prevent Higher Fares from Stagecoach/Scottish Citylink Tie-Up
    News Release 54/06 23 October 2006 CC ACTS TO PREVENT HIGHER FARES FROM STAGECOACH/ SCOTTISH CITYLINK TIE-UP The Competition Commission (CC) has concluded that the joint venture between Stagecoach and Scottish Citylink could lead to higher fares and reduced service levels for their coach passengers on the Glasgow–Aberdeen and Edinburgh–Inverness routes. Prior to the joint venture, Stagecoach and Scottish Citylink had been the two main coach competitors on these routes. The CC will now require the joint venture to sell some of its services to a new and independent owner to ensure that coach passengers do not lose out as a result of the loss of competition which previously existed between Stagecoach and Scottish Citylink. The completed joint venture between Stagecoach Bus Holdings Limited and Braddell PLC saw Stagecoach’s Motorvator-branded services and megabus-branded services in Scotland (and between Scotland and England) brought together with Scottish Citylink, which had been their direct competitor on a number of routes in Scotland. The CC’s final report, which is published today at www.competition-commission.org.uk, concludes that the joint venture would lead to a substantial lessening of competition on the ‘Saltire Cross’ routes (the Glasgow–Aberdeen and Edinburgh–Inverness routes, crossing at Perth), given the removal of competition between megabus and Scottish Citylink. This confirms the view of the provisional findings report which was published in August. Inquiry Chairman, John Baillie said: Customers benefit from competition and we do not see how this joint venture can preserve these benefits for passengers when previously these companies had been competing vigorously for their custom.

  • Rse Inquiry Into Facing up to Climate Change: Stagecoach Group Submission
    RSE INQUIRY INTO FACING UP TO CLIMATE CHANGE: STAGECOACH GROUP SUBMISSION 1.0 Introduction 1.1 Stagecoach Group is a leading international public transport company with bus and rail operations in the UK and North America. The Group employs around 30,000 people and runs around 12,000 buses and trains. We operate more than 1,500 buses in Scotland, including the Highlands and Islands of Scotland, Aberdeenshire, Fife, Tayside, Ayrshire and West Scotland. Stagecoach is also the leading provider of inter-city coach travel in Scotland through Scottish Citylink and the budget inter-city coach service megabus.com. 1.2 We are pleased to have been invited to make a submission to the RSE’s inquiry on Facing up to Climate Change. The submission below addresses the following issues: • Transport and climate change • Risks and opportunities • Impact of the Climate Change (Scotland) Act • Transport priorities • Carbon reduction partnerships • Barriers to change • Regulation and incentives 2.0 Transport and climate change 2.1 We believe modal shift from car use to greener, smarter travel on buses and trains is central to tackling the challenge of climate change. While this may ultimately lead to increased carbon emissions from public transport, the overall benefit to society from dramatic reductions elsewhere will be enormous. Road transport accounts for around 22% of carbon emissions in the UK and it is are rising. Commuting and business travel, for example, accounts for nearly 40% of all miles driven by car in the UK. Government, local authorities, businesses, public transport operators and other stakeholders must work in partnership to encourage intelligent car use and create an environment in which it is easy for consumers to make the switch to more carbon efficient options.

    2021 Book News Welcome to our 2021 Book News. As we come towards the end of a very strange year we hope that you’ve managed to get this far relatively unscathed. It’s been a very challenging time for us all and we’re just relieved that, so far, we’re mostly all in one piece. While we were closed over lockdown, Mark took on the challenge of digitalising some of Venture’s back catalogue producing over 20 downloadable books of some of our most popular titles. Thanks to the kind donations of our customers we managed to raise over £3000 for The Christie which was then matched pound for pound by a very good friend taking the total to almost £7000. There is still time to donate and download these books, just click on the downloads page on our website for the full list. We’re still operating with reduced numbers in the building at any one time. We’ve re-organised our schedules for packers and office staff to enable us to get orders out as fast as we can, but we’re also relying on carriers and suppliers. Many of the publishers whose titles we stock are small societies or one-man operations so please be aware of the longer lead times when placing orders for Christmas presents. The last posting dates for Christmas are listed on page 63 along with all the updates in light of the current Covid situation and also the impending Brexit deadline. In particular, please note the change to our order and payment processing which was introduced on 1st July 2020.
