Go West Tours has established a new depot in Karratha after securing a major contract to run the Karratha town bus services for the Public Transport Authority.

The 10 year contract is to operate the local community bus and a number of school runs.

North West Manager Brad Bunce said Go West would operate PTA-supplied 2011 Mercedes buses from a fully operational PTA supplied depot in the Karratha Light Industrial Area.

“This is a huge advantage for us in Karratha which will help to strengthen our position and give us a foundation to work from for many years to come,” Brad said.
