Go Goodwins Clwyd Limited is a company that was formed in February 2021 as W Goodwin and Son Limited but changed its name in April of this year and when the registered office was also changed to the Halendy Garage.
Louis Goodwin is the fifth generation of the Goodwin family that have been involved in public transport in the Manchester area since the 1970s.
This application follows an abandoned application at the same premises at Mostyn by Go Goodwins Group Limited (Director Wesley Goodwin) last month.
The premises are also now the registered office of the company Crosville Coaches Limited (Director Sally Goodwin) who made an abandoned application in 2018 for an Operators Licence with a planned operating centre at the home address of Wes Goodwin in Trelawnyd .
Until recently the Goodwin family have been involved in providing bus services under the 'Little Gem' branding but these services ceased last month leaving Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) arranging emergency cover for several of the bus routes and school services involved.
