Buzzlines launches new supersize coach service

Buzzlines, the leading Kent coach operator, has made coaching history again
by taking the first UK delivery of the latest supersize luxury coach
produced by top manufacturer SETRA.

Buzzlines has bought two of the new single deck 13-metre twin axle coaches,
which are built to incorporate the highest safety and environmental
technology available and are finished in the distinctive Buzzlines' blue
livery.

Each coach cost more than £240,000. The second vehicle will be joining the
Buzzlines fleet within the next six weeks

The coaches have been designed to increase space and comfort for passengers
with additional leg-room plus the ability to separate pairs of seats
offering passengers more room to move about and take advantage of increased
personal space on longer journeys.

Buzzlines managing director Nigel Busbridge said: "Our policy is to ensure
all our passengers and drivers benefit from the highest specification
vehicles on the market and we are continually upgrading our fleet as
technology progresses.

"These new coaches are extremely easy to manoeuvre and pleasant to drive.
High specification vehicles are a hallmark of the service we provide to
passengers enjoying holidays and day trips with Buzzlines Travel or hiring
our coaches for corporate contracts."

Buzzlines, based at Lympne, near Hythe, first made coaching history two
years ago when the company took delivery of the first supersize double deck
Neoplan coach to travel on UK roads.

Buzzlines has regular passenger pick-up points across the county in
Ashford, Birchington, Broadstairs,, Canterbury, Cliftonville, Chatham,
Cheriton, Dartford, Deal, Dover, Faversham, Folkestone, Gillingham,
Gravesend, Herne Bay, Hythe, Maidstone, Margate, Medway Services, Rainham,
Ramsgate, Rochester, Sevenoaks, Sittingbourne, West Malling and Whitstable
plus London Victoria.
