ADL 10000 Bus Milestone

Alexander Dennis Limited (ADL) celebrated a major milestone with the roll-out of its 10,000th two-axle, low floor double deck bus.

ADL Marks a Milestone of 10,000 Buses Celebrated

The 78-seat executive Enviro400 will join ADL’s demonstration fleet as the company continues to promote high specification double decks as an attractive option for premium services. It comes complete with leather seats, wood effect flooring, seat belts, Wi-Fi, USB charging points, mobile phone holders, skylight roof panels as well as next-stop audio and visual announcement systems.

Colin Robertson, ADL’s Chief Executive, commented: “There is a trend towards high quality buses that combine capacity and comfort. They raise the bar and are helping operators win business, particularly in terms of private hires, special events, corporate work and even school contracts.”

ADL has managed to notch a couple of key wins over the past few years involving companies such as Go Goodwins, Hams Travel, Imperial Coaches, Skills Coaches, Swans Travel, Weavaway, Westway Coaches and Wheelers Travel.

Colin Robertson: “This trend is a far cry from two decades ago when buses were fairly down-to-earth, no frills vehicles. Therefore, it is fitting that we celebrate this 10,000 landmark with a double deck that demonstrates the huge strides we have made in taking product options to a whole new level.”

The 10,000 milestone of two-axle, low floor double deck buses not only includes the current and previous Enviro400 models but also their predecessor.

Colin Robertson commented: “This 10,000th low floor double deck bus is a milestone for everyone at ADL. However, the overriding fact is that the success of vehicles like this help us support apprenticeships, career development opportunities, 2,500 jobs across ADL, 1,500 more in our various collaborative ventures, and a further 5,000 in our supply chain network.”
