Volvo Buses
UNITED KINGDOM & IRELAND
The bespoke vehicles, with MCV Evolution bodywork, will serve students of the University of Hertfordshire and members of the local community on a route with stops including Luton Airport, The University of Hertfordshire, Hatfield and ending at Cockfosters.
Jim Thorpe, Managing Director for Uno Bus, said: “We went through a formal tendering process and Volvo came out on top when it came to the size, capacity and appeal. The introduction of these six new single deck vehicles forms part of our transformational programme, creating an enhanced customer experience for our passengers.
“We’ve worked closely with Volvo to create an interior that will provide the very best in comfort and facilities. We’ve also included sofa seating at the front of the bus which gives the customers more space and offers a relaxed, lounge type feel.”
Retail Bus & Coach Sales Manager, Richard Mann, added: “Uno Bus were looking for a vehicle that could meet the demands of a busy bus route and cater to the needs of a variety of passengers. We are pleased that with this in mind, they selected the Volvo B8RLE, a robust vehicle, which will be perfectly suited to this popular route.
“The vehicles have been fitted with free WiFi and USB charging points, which are great for students who will be using the service when travelling to and from university.”
Uno Bus, is a bus company owned by the University of Hertfordshire, offering services to local communities as well as university students in Hertfordshire and Northampton.
