Transdev York is one of seven companies within the Blazefield Group. Blazefield is owned by Transdev, a large French transport operator and the sixth largest bus operator in the UK.
History
Formed in summer 2008, Transdev York comprises the former Top Line Travel business which includes local school services and the York City Sightseeing franchise and the local bus operations of Veolia Transport. Both businesses were based at the same depot in Fulford near York, where the combined Transdev York operation is now operated from. This new operation further expands Transdev Blazefield's operations in the York area which include Yorkshire Coastliner's Leeds to East Coast services and Harrogate & District's Harrogate services. Transdev York expanded further when the local service and open-top services of York Pullman were taken over on 26 February 2012.[1]

Liveries
The company operates buses in several different liveries. Local bus services are operated in a new two tone blue livery with York branding. The York CitySightseeing livery which is red with illustrations of York landmarks and white Yorkshire roses. A number of vehicles carry Coastliner livery. Several vehicles taken over with the local bus services of York Pullman retain their former operator's livery until they can be repainted. The local bus service livery was formerly red & grey and two vehicles retain this at present.
Fares
As well as Single and Return Fares, a number of fare saver tickets are available, such as Day Rovers, Ten Journey Tickets and "YO Zone", a half fare card for York residents aged 11–16. These exclude the City Sightseeing and the Raceday Shuttle services.
Although the Day Rovers are invalid on the CitySightseeing buses, the CitySightseeing tickets can be used up to the limits of the city on all Transdev York service buses and Yorkshire Coastliner services.
