Eastbourne Coachways
Eastbourne Coachways[1] is a bus and coach operator based in Bexhill-on-Sea, United Kingdom. It was formed in 2012 as the sister company of Renown Coaches. In October 2018, it took over some subsidised routes from Renown Coaches following competitive tendering.[2] In November 2018, it took over some vehicles and assets of Renown Transport Services Limited.[3] On 13 March 2019, the operator's licence held by Eastbourne Coachways Limited was revoked from 23:45 on 24 July following a public inquiry. Until that time, the licence was reduced from 16 to 8 vehicles.[4][5][6][7][8]
