Nottingham-based family-run Skills Motor Coaches has placed an order to add six Alexander Dennis Enviro400 buses to its operation. The order is the operator’s first new Alexander Dennis order since 2017. The six double-deck buses will be introduced to support school transport, private hire, and corporate travel contracts.
Each of the new buses will offer 85 seats to give Skills extra capacity for high passenger numbers on its services. Managing Director at Skills Motor Coaches Pete Hallam commented: “Building on the success of our 2017 purchase of Alexander Dennis vehicles, which have consistently delivered outstanding reliability and low maintenance costs, we are delighted to expand our fleet with six new Enviro400 double-deck buses. These vehicles have been highly regarded by both our passengers and team for their comfort, performance and operational efficiency. This latest investment reaffirms our commitment to delivering exceptional standards across our premium contracts. I would like to thank Simon and the Alexander Dennis team for their exceptional support throughout this process and we look forward to introducing these new buses to our fleet and customers.”
Regional Sales Manager for Alexander Dennis Simon Wood added: “I’m really pleased to have been able to assist Pete and the rest of the Skills team with ordering six of our Enviro400 double-deck buses. We look forward to supporting these buses throughout their operational lives with our comprehensive AD24 aftermarket support.”
