Investment
Our profits have been substantially re-invested in the service, and over £7 million has been spent on new vehicles and vehicle refurbishments in the last year alone. 95% of our local bus service network is provided using Easy Access buses, improving social inclusion by bringing better buses close to more families, elderly and people with disabilities. As an Investor in People, we develop our staff to add further value both to our services and their careers.
