INVESTMENT CONTINUES AT JOHNSONS

Henley-in -Arden coach and bus operator, Johnsons, is continuing its policy of investment by adding a further 8 vehicles to its fleet.

Johnsons are one of the premier coach and bus operators in the region and one of South Warwickshire’s leading employers. The new additions include 2 service buses, 2 new 22 seater coaches and 2 Transit mini buses used to collect holiday customers from their own front door.

But the stars of the new acquisition are 2 brand new Club Class 49 seater vehicles which are over 1m longer than traditional coaches. This places them amongst some of the largest coaches on the road. In addition they also offer greater leg room than a conventional coach.

Every aspect of these new ‘super’ coaches has been designed to provide passengers with maximum comfort and style. Features include luxury aircraft style seats, superb standards of trim in addition to the usual Johnsons deluxe facilities such as washrooms, refreshments facilities, DVD’s and PA systems.

“Super” coaches will be used on Johnsons holidays and excursions programmes and all the latest acquisitions join a fleet that has been significantly expanded in recent years.

The acquisition of these vehicles is in line with the company’s policy of annual vehicle replacement which ensures that the average age of the fleet is not more than 6 years old.
