Other features of the £1.3m fleet include leather seats and tinted glass, USB chargers for all seats, free WiFi, audio next- stop announcements, extra space for buggies and shopping trolleys and ‘easier to read’ front destination displays.
The buses also have full internal and external CCTV, visual ‘next-stop’ interior signs, full wheelchair access and real time tracking, which links to the journey planner incorporated in Yellow Buses’ app and website.
