    What better way to mark World Sustainable #TransportDay than by celebrating the first ever EV bus going on permanent display at the iconic London Transport Museum. We were honoured to help LTM tell the story of sustainable, zero-emission London transport and inspire future generations to get involved in the bus industry by providing a state-of-the-art EV electric bus full of interactive elements for visitors to explore. The exhibit which features a Wrightbus Electroliner, was engineered specifically for the museum by Ross Cleaver and team. The display is now open to the public thanks to the support of our partners, Wrightbus, Zenobē, Hanover Displays and NAVAHO. The project, led by Alastair Willis for Transport UK London Bus, part of the Transport UK Group, was also supported by LAZARINI, AG Marketing Services, Jon Eardley, Lorna Murphy, Journeo plc and the inspirational LTM team. #EV #LondonTransport #London #WorldSustainableTransportDay find out more: https://bit.ly/4fG1JFi

    We are thrilled to announce that Transport UK is a UNESCO commercial partner for its 2025 World Engineering Day for Sustainable Development campaign.   This campaign will recognise the role of science and engineering in sustainable development. A short film will showcase Britain’s unrivalled rail heritage and highlight Transport UK’s innovative sustainable transport solutions, which reduce emissions and improve community safety. 🚆 🚍   The film features the sustainability initiatives we are undertaking at Merseyrail, Greater Anglia, and Transport UK London Bus. As a group, we are continuing to expand these initiatives across all our operating companies in line with - and in some cases ahead of - the Government’s net-zero decarbonisation timelines.    The film was produced by the SJH Group, in partnership with Transport UK.   See the film below 📽 ⬇ #UNESCO #Sustainability UNESCO World Engineering Day for Sustainable Development East Midlands Railway West Midlands Trains Alan Pilbeam Martin Beable Lorna Murphy

    We’re excited to partner with the London Sight Loss Council at Vauxhall Bus Station as part of our Catch the Bus Month campaign. The event on 11th September focused on advancing accessibility across London’s bus network. 🔊 This collaboration is focused on practical improvements that ensure our public transport system is welcoming for all. At the event, we had the opportunity to talk directly to Tom Cunnington FCILT, Head of Buses Business Development – "Today is an opportunity to engage with a large group of people with different levels of sight loss, to understand what their current experiences are and if the current innovations are good for them or where we can improve them further. This is all part of our aim to make it easier to catch the bus and to ensure that our services are as inclusive as possible for all of London. " Discover how we’re making bus travel easier and more inclusive for all Londoners. Learn more at 👇 https://lnkd.in/efYUKP4R #InclusiveTravel #LondonBuses #TfL
