Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

STEVENSONS of Uttoxeter this week took over the Rugeley Bus Company which is a subsidiary of Middletons Coaches of Rugeley.

The company operates five town services in Rugeley, an express service linking the town and the Trent Valley with Birmingham, and some rural routes around Rugeley. These services will increase Stevensons' annual stage operation to 520,000 miles per year over 16 routes, five of which have been taken over from Potteries and Midland Red.

Some of the Rugeley routes were taken over from Midland Red in May this year.

Stevensons say that the new network will improve links between Uttoxeter, Rugeley and Birmingham, and recent additions to the fleet include Ford R1114 Plaxton coaches and several ex-London Transport Daimler Fleetlines.

The company also has a new Leyland Leopard and a doubledeck Bristol VRT/ECW 70-seat coach on order.
