Greater Manchester's new fleet of Bee Network yellow buses spotted on Leigh guided busway
The first yellow buses set to be rolled out completely across two boroughs later this year have been spotted on the famous Leigh guided busway route.
While the buses that eagle eyed passengers may have spotted on the Leigh guided busway recently aren't the brand new electric fleet set to be rolled out in September, operators have already started to introduce Bee Network co-branded yellow buses onto the network, Transport for Greater Manchester confirmed. The distinctive purple buses that run from Leigh and Atherton to Manchester Royal Infirmary, run by First Bus, have recently turned into the Bee Network yellow.
TfGM announced in March that 50 brand new electric Bee Network buses will be introduced on day one of the new franchising, alongside new ‘Euro VI’ vehicles and dozens more co-branded buses from the existing fleet, including Vantage buses, which operate on the guided busway. The new electric buses are set to be fully accessible, with wheelchair bays, hearing induction loops, audio and visual announcement systems and anti-slip flooring.
"This is very much the start of our journey that will ultimately deliver a greener, integrated and more inclusive transport system that will transform how people travel around our city-region."
