Here is an e-mail to us, describing the agreement between the council and Local Link, from Councillor Mark King:
Torbay Council have entered into a one year agreement with Local Link for a fixed price to enable the no. 60 and 61 bus route to continue. The Council will be working with Local Link during this time to try and achieve a sustainable solution. This work is ongoing.
I do not have access to Local Link’s passenger numbers. If Local Link decide to release it to me, it would be a commercially sensitive document. Therefore i would be unable to place this information in the public domain. For the same reason, I cannot release the terms of the one year agreement with Local Link.
I can assure you we are holding regular meetings with the operator.

The agreement mentioned was arranged in May 2016, indicating that the 60/61 is safe until at least May 2017.
