A bus group has been renamed in preparation for the pending local government reorganisation.

Oxford Bus Group is now part of Go Thames Valley, and has a network spanning Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Berkshire, Gloucestershire, the Cotswolds and beyond.

The move comes ahead of the local government reorganisation, which scraps the existing two-tier system and will see three unitary authorities take care of everything in Oxfordshire and a part of Berkshire.

Luke Marion, managing director of Go Thames Valley, said the new name ensured they were “more relevant to the communities we serve”.
