Preston Bus was a bus operator running within the City of Preston and into the surrounding area. In 2009, it was acquired by the Stagecoach Group and was rebranded Stagecoach in Preston, before they were subsequently ordered to sell the company as a result of competition concerns. As part of the Competition Commission findings into the takeover, Preston Bus is currently being managed separately from the main Stagecoach business, pending possible divestment to a third party company later this year. Preston Bus was founded in 1904 as Preston District Travel. As part of deregulation, in 1993 the company was bought from the local authority by its employees, and became a limited company. In 2006, Preston Bus was subject to some high profile competition from national operator Stagecoach Group through their Stagecoach North West subsidiary. Competition escalated into a bus war with Stagecoach offering lower fares on the busiest routes.
