If approved the company will take over the running of the Dumfries to Edinburgh service in April.
A new operator has been found for a bus service it was feared could cease running between Dumfries and Edinburgh.The move will be considered at Strathclyde Passenger Transport's operations committee on Friday.
If agreed, it would see a three-year contract awarded - with an optional two-year extension - at a cost of £385,000-a-year. The Dumfries to Edinburgh service - which was run by Stagecoach - looked set to be removed in August last year before funding was found to run until the end of March this year. However, none of the tenders initially submitted to operate it longer term was considered best value and a new effort to find a "sustainable and affordable solution" was started.The service - which runs between south west Scotland and the capital - serves a large number of towns and villages including West Linton, Biggar and Moffat.
