10 new ADL Enviro200 MMCs for Cardiff Bus

[HY_4273]

I trust this story about Cardiff Bus' order for 10 new ADL Enviro200 MMCs will be of interest: https://cbwmagazine.com/cardiff-bus-to-invest-1-5m-in-new-buses/

Ten brand new 9.7m ADL Enviro200 MMCs to be brought into service in March Cardiff Bus has announced plans to invest £1.5 million in 10 brand new 9.7m ADL Enviro200 MMCs as it continues to improve its offering for customers. The high-tech buses are made in Britain by Alexander Dennis Ltd in Scarborough, and will offer an improved passenger experience complete with CCTV, contemporary interiors, comfortable seating, free 4G WiFi and USB charging points, the operator claims.
The vehicles will be brought into service in March this year and will have the latest next-stop announcement systems to ensure Cardiff Bus’ services are accessible to all. The distinctive livery on the new vehicles was designed by Best Impressions.

Thanks for posting.

I saw this elsewhere too. I reckon these will go on Service 27 (Thornhill - City Centre). CB recently made improvements to this service by increasing the frequency to one bus every 7 minutes. On the page of their website where this is mentioned they also say that this "marks the beginning of developments to service 27, with good news about our service on this route coming soon."

Other than the possibility of newer vehicles I wonder what else the good news could be?

HTIOI,
