Transmanche are aiming to increase the number of foot pax and day trippers this year, and this will include the re-introduction of the passenger bus service from the Dieppe terminal into the town.

Any news on if LD and TM will eventually rebrand as one name? So far it looks like they are looking to stay two seperate brands, but this might change.
