Well done for the super Citaro buses
9:12am Tuesday 20th May 2008
SIR - Congratulations to Worcestershire County Council for the introduction of new environmentally friendly Mercedes Benz Citaro buses on the W1 park-and-ride service from Perdiswell to CrownGate Bus Station.
These Woosh buses are smooth, comfortable, and have plenty of leg room, which is good news for regular travellers.
The professional image should make a good first impression on visitors.
Will First follow the council's lead in 2008 and provide similar new vehicles for the remaining city services which are currently making do with worn out 12-year old buses cascaded in from other big cities, or will London, Glasgow, Manchester and Leeds once again be the beneficiaries of current new bus orders?
Tim Brown, Worcester.
