This agreement continued in diminished form until deregulation in 1986, following which the route network rapidly expanded.In more recent times, following the brief tenure by Stagecoach, Rotala Preston Bus has also operated a diverse number of services on behalf of Lancashire County Council, which over recent years has involved routes to many of the surrounding Lancashire towns.
