What makes coach travel

Coach travel keeps your passengers together and takes them directly to their destination. This minimises the inconvenience that alternative transport causes and allows for a regular replacement service that avoids further delays.

Reliable

Our coaches receive an in-depth maintenance inspection every six weeks to make sure that they’re kept in top working order. By catching issues early, we prevent them from developing into problems that could derail your journey and we make sure that your passengers aren’t delayed further.

What sets

Embracing modern technology

Our Samsara operations platform allows us to view the location of all our vehicles in real time, along with camera feeds from their forward and rear-facing dash cams, and the surrounding traffic conditions. This additional information allows us to monitor each journey in detail and gives us the opportunity to identify potential issues before they cause disruption.

Finding a way

We appreciate a good challenge. Discuss the rail replacement service that you have in mind with us and we’ll determine how to make it work. The number of vehicles in our fleet and the variety of different sizes allows us to handle jobs that other companies wouldn’t be able to take on. With these resources at our disposal, we are an ideal partner for transport providers and rail companies.

Using our experience

We’ve successfully worked with a number of transport providers in the past to arrange rail replacement services for their passengers. This experience means that we know exactly what you require from us and can provide a service that takes the stress out of your passengers’ journey. By handling our side of things effectively, we free up your time to focus on the maintenance or disruption at hand.

Preparing for success

We’ll do everything we can to prevent your passengers from suffering further delays. We’ll check your proposed route ahead of time to identify any potential issues and we’ll make sure that these have been accounted for by the time the replacement service is running. This preparation ensures that each journey runs smoothly and is hassle-free.

Focusing on safety

To make sure that our vehicles are safe, efficient, and as reliable as possible, we carry out rigorous maintenance inspections every six weeks. These inspections ensure that our vehicles are kept in top working order, reducing the risk of further delays and making sure that your journey is as safe as it can be. This schedule also means that we maintain our vehicles above and beyond the required DVSA standards.

Minimising our impact

We’ve embraced the environmental benefits of coach travel and actively take steps to minimise the impact of our journeys. We’ve invested in modern, fuel efficient vehicles for our fleet that incorporate technological features such as idle engine cut offs to reduce our emissions, and we instruct each of our drivers to monitor their engine usage and to adopt fuel-efficient driving techniques.
