NEW BUSES FOR HECKMONDWIKE

COMING SOON.......

Thirteen Volvo B7 buses with bodywork by Wright will carry fleet numbers 1100 to 1112. The first nine are due for delivery in July, and the other four in August.

The Dennis Lances are all due for withdrawal.

1100 (YJ08 DVA) is pictured at the end of the production line in Belfast.






Later this year, fourteen Dennis Enviro 400's are expected, to upgrade service 268 (Dewsbury-Bradford).

 

The bus pictured here is operating for Arriva North East, but shows what passengers on the 268 can look forward to. Thanks to Paul Salmon for the photograph.

STOP PRESS! Heckmondwike's new buses are in service in LIVERPOOL!

1100 to 1112 have been spotted working the "Park & Ride" service for the Tall Ships event on the River Mersey. Click these links to see exclusive photographs by James Frisby & Mark Haldon.
