Rossendale Rovers bus A bright new bus brand is to bring smarter travel to Rossendale in the New Year, thanks to a partnership between Rosso and Lancashire County Council. Rossendale Rovers is the new name for Rosso’s local buses in and around Rawtenstall, Bacup and beyond, with a new network delivering many improvements for the area from Monday 4 January 2021. Newer easy-access buses will be introduced on services 8, 10, 11, 12 and 13 as part of the new Rossendale Rovers network, with customer-friendly features on-board including audio-visual next stop announcements. The new Rossendale Rovers network will restore previously lost links between communities while also providing more buses, more often to boost the region’s bus services for residents including key workers and students while attracting new customers to choose the bus for local journeys.
