What's going on at Megabus?

Posted in Industry news

Go to megabus.com to check current timetable and prices and book a ticket for your journey.

I think they do quite well. The carrier has recently announced two good news. One concerns the purchase of new vehicles, the second information relates to a special promotion that the carrier gives.

Megabus gets a brand new coaches

The 15metre-long vehicles are being made by Scottish manufacturer Alexander Dennis. Each new Megabus coach will have 75 seats so it is over 20% extra capacity and more luggage space. They will run on Stagecoach's Megabus network in Scotland and England, mainly on two routes: Glasgow - Edinburgh - Newcastle - Sheffield – London; and Preston - Manchester – London. They may also be used on some London - Leeds and London - Exeter - Plymouth services.

The coaches, which also have lower carbon emissions and provide roll-on level access for wheelchair users, are scheduled to arrive in December.

New vehicles cost £3.2m.

The operator has worked closely with Plaxton over the past 10 months on developing this new model. The Elite i higher-capacity coach will deliver lower per passenger emissions than standard coaches. Powered by a 10.8-litre Euro 5 engine, the vehicle is based on a tri-axle Volvo B11RT underframe.
