Following deregulation in 1986, the established bus operators
suddenly found themselves being challenged by new independent
operators, some of whom ultimately disappeared from the scene while
others were swallowed up by the larger groups. After Yorkshire
Rider, an arm of West Yorkshire PTE was privatised in 1988 and grew
following its acquisition of former NBC subsidiary West Yorkshire
Road Car Co. It was subsequently purchased by Badgerline/FirstBus,
who became the dominant operator in the city. Arriva and Transdev
also have a presence in Leeds. This book takes a look at all the
transport developments and changes that have taken place within the
city between 1986 and 2022 and, with many new liveries and vehicle
types, illustrates the ever-fascinating scene.
