Johnsons Coaches of Henley-in-Arden have purchased four brand new coaches. They are equipped with greener ´Euro 5´ engines which means that they meet the latest and most stringent EU legislation standards for economy and emissions. Two are built to Johnsons ´Club Class´ standard, which includes 49 seats and aircraft style tables. These are also fully carpeted, have built in vacuum cleaners and will be used on Johnsons large and popular programme of holidays, day excursions and theatre trips. The other two vehicles have 53 seats and will be kept busy on the company´s private hire and private group holidays services.
All four coaches also have on board CCTV plus toilet, drinks and DVD facilities. A new enhancement is that all of Johnsons coaches are now equipped with a GPS tracking system so that operations staff know where any coach is, throughout Britain and Europe, at any time or the day or night. John Johnson said "Vehicle tracking has been a major step forward for the company and the visual positioning facility helps us to ensure the maximum efficiency of our 40 vehicle coach fleet. The system has a number of other features that helps us to keep fuel use and fuel consumption to an absolute minimum, which is so vitally important in these times of high fuel prices." These new vehicle arrivals are the first in this years 1.5 million pound investment programme, which will ensure that the Johnsons coach and bus fleet continues to be one of the most modern and up to date private vehicle fleets in the UK. |
