Alexander Dennis Enviro200 Availability meets Demand
Alexander Dennis, a subsidiary of NFI Group Inc., one of the world’s leading independent global bus manufacturers, today announced that it has supplied two Enviro200 low-emission buses to Rotala Group for its Preston Bus operation. The new buses had been pre-built as stock and were delivered to Rotala just one week after the customer’s initial enquiry. This has allowed the operator to meet an increase in peak vehicle requirement at Preston Bus following a timetable change.
Alexander Dennis holds stock of its Enviro200 single decker in lengths of 8.9m, 9.6m and 10.8m, with Rotala choosing the shortest version which offers 30 seats. Fitted with the manufacturer’s SmartPack efficiency technology, all stock-built Enviro200 are certified as low-emission buses and eligible for enhanced rates of bus service grant payments where available. Bob Dunn, Regional Executive Director for Rotala, said: “The quick availability of these two new Enviro200 has helped us deliver network improvements for our Preston Bus passengers.
The support from the Alexander Dennis team has been fantastic to allow for a rapid turnaround and delivery. We’re already operating the latest Enviro200 low-emission model at our Diamond Bus North West sister company, where they have proven themselves to be reliable and economic performers.” Simon Wood, Regional Sales Manager for Alexander Dennis, said: “We’re delighted to have been able to support Rotala in meeting this urgent vehicle demand.
We build our Enviro200 and Enviro400 stock for requirements like these, offering versatile vehicles finished to a great specification that allows for operational flexibility.”
