A BUS company which has had its vehicles targeted by stone-throwing youths will not withdraw its services to a Darlington estate.
Stagecoach North-East threatened to stop its services to the Red Hall Estate after bus windows were broken by stones in the past three weeks.
Richard Cranmer, manager of Stagecoach's Darlington depot, said the company would have no choice but to stop buses going into the area unless the attacks stopped.
Last night, Mr Cranmer said that services would continue after he had no reports of trouble in the past week.
He said: "Thankfully, things have generally calmed down and we have not had any more incidents.
"We do still reserve the right to withdraw services if things deteriorate in the future."
