Date Added 15/07/2025

Johnsons Coaches, based in Henley-in-Arden, is proud to announce that we have been named a finalist in three categories at the 2025 routeone Awards, the UK’s most prestigious awards recognising excellence in the coach and bus industry.

We are delighted to be shortlisted for:

• Large Coach Operator of the Year (over 40 coaches)
• Coach Tourism Programme of the Year
• Outstanding Customer Experience

Organised by routeone magazine, the awards shine a spotlight on the very best operators, individuals and initiatives across the sector. Those that deliver exceptional service, support their communities and raise standards across the board.

This triple nomination is a reflection of the hard work, passion and professionalism of our entire team. From our friendly and knowledgeable drivers to our operations, travel and workshop teams behind the scenes, everyone plays a part in delivering the quality and care our customers rely on. Whether they’re booking a UK holiday, joining a day trip or hiring one of our coaches for private travel.

Bethany Morgan, Head of Marketing and Business Development at Johnsons Coaches, said:

We’re absolutely thrilled to be recognised in three categories at the 2025 routeone Awards. Over the past few years, we’ve worked hard to develop and evolve our business while staying true to our values – delivering high standards for our customers. This recognition is a huge achievement for our team, and we’re excited to celebrate how far we’ve come.

A special mention goes to Barry Cobb, for our tourism programme. Barry’s vision, product knowledge and attention to detail have been instrumental in building a tourism programme that consistently receives exceptional feedback and attracts thousands of customers each year.

Ashley Brown, Director of Johnsons Coaches, added:

To be recognised in three categories at a national level is a tremendous honour. We are proud of our team’s ongoing commitment to high standards and the quality of the experiences we provide. It’s fantastic to see that effort acknowledged by our industry peers.

The winners will be announced at the routeone Awards ceremony on Wednesday 5th November 2025 at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole, where hundreds of industry leaders will come together to celebrate best practice across the UK transport sector.

For over 115 years, Johnsons Coaches has proudly served the Midlands and beyond – and this recognition reinforces our continued commitment to excellence, innovation and customer care.
