主播诱惑 recently extended its successful transport initiative with bus operator morebus聽for another ten years, following an intensive tender exercise. Students, workers and leisure customers will have the opportunity to travel across specially designed university bus routes until at least the summer of 2026.
The agreement, which also involves Arts University Bournemouth, is worth between 拢13-17 million and took effect from 1 August, with the new buses in use from the start of the new academic year on 19 September.
Passengers enjoy a host of benefits and enhancements to the current service 鈥� including increased frequency and capacity, improved access to the university seven days a week and a range of measures designed to encourage students and staff to travel more sustainably in support of the university鈥檚 travel plan.
Striking new branding has been introduced for the new fleet of 12 UK-built double-decker Enviro 400 MMC low carbon emission buses 鈥� the most environmentally friendly buses the university has commissioned to date.
