The Chorley-based company has taken delivery of the first of 10 new touring coaches, which will make its fleet wholly Euro VI-compliant

Lancashire-based Alfa Travel says it is thrilled to announce the addition of 10 new Mercedes-Benz Tourismo coaches to its expanding fleet, marking what it calls an exciting new chapter in the company’s commitment to providing the best travel experiences, and allowing it to respond to the increasing popularity of coach tours within the UK.

The delivery also means that every coach in Alfa Travel’s fleet now operates at Euro VI levels, helping to reduce the company’s carbon emissions and lower air pollution levels as part of its commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility.

Managing Director Emma Russell said: “We are thrilled to welcome these new vehicles into our fleet. This significant investment underscores our commitment to offering customers high-quality holidays, with a focus on safety, comfort and environmental sustainability.

“Our Alfa coaches are incredibly popular with customers and these latest additions will only enhance the travel experience. We look forward to seeing our drivers warmly welcoming passengers on board as the coaches hit the road.

“Customer safety is our top priority,” she added. “All our coaches come with advanced safety features like Active Brake Assist, lane departure warning, and Sideguard Assist, as well as Traffic Sign Assist and driver attention monitoring. We also have tyre pressure monitoring to ensure everything is running smoothly. With Webfleet telemetry and Lytx camera systems in place, passengers
can relax and enjoy their journey knowing they’re in safe hands.” Each of the new coaches is also equipped with complimentary WiFi and USB charging sockets. The 10 coaches will be delivered throughout the year.
