Something interesting occurring this service change that has not been announced to the public is that double deckers have a chance to appear on Merrill Creek routes now! The 2015 Enviros were transferred to Merrill Creek to operate on routes 117 and 909, the latter of which was also transferred from Transdev. Because of this, I'm willing to bet that the Transdev contract will be cancelled early, or not be renewed again at the very least.
