A brief history of Tyrer Tours
In 1972 R.S.Tyrer & Sons were
formed at Adlington near Chorley.
Bob Tyrer went into partnership with
his father who had been a coach driver
for 30 years and during that partnership
he acquired valuable experience in
the Coaching Industry.
With the firm expanding Bob formed
his own company called New City Coachways,
so called because he was based in
the proposed new city area of Leyland,
Chorley and Preston.
In 1978 he bought the old established
Barnoldswick Firm of Wild Brothers
Excursions and moved his operation
over to East Lancashire
"My family were so impressed
by the area and the friendly and pleasant
community."
Later acquisitions included locally
famous transport names such as Shutts
of Burnley and Kirkbright of Colne
and a move was made from Barnoldswick
to premises at Trawden, where the
firm was based until the recent move
to a larger site on Lomeshaye Industrial
Estate where the 40+ employees and
the fleet of around 28 vehicles are
now based.
