The new double-decker buses take 65 passengers and include reclining seats, power and usb points at every seat, free Wi-Fi, on-board toilets and are also wheelchair-friendly.

In an effort to make their buses more fuel efficient and environmentally-friendly, all 15 in the fleet will meet Euro 5 emission standards.
