First Bus’ Post

We're on a mission to improve public transport. It's so important we tackle poor air quality and improve our public spaces by giving greater priority to walking, cycling and public transport in our towns and cities. We also need to enhance connectivity to more rural communities, which we'd have greater potential to do if our city networks were moving free of congestion. Punctuality would improve, you could trust the bus would turn up on time and travel would be more affordable because it would be more efficient! As it is, we've been able to make punctuality improvements in every market across Midlands, Manchester and South Yorkshire in the last 12 months, but we want to strive for better for our customers. 99% of the buses we say we'll run, do in fact run, but getting them bang on time or providing you real time information on exactly when they'll turn up is a major focus for us right now, alongside our commitment to providing sustainable, green solutions. We hope you can see First Bus are evolving to be the best public transport provider in the UK.
