The Effitires contract covers the Scottish operator’s 400-strong fleet of single- and double-decker buses, operating from its five depots in Barrhead, Coatbridge, Greenock, Inchinnan and Johnstone.
“We’ve enjoyed fantastic support from Michelin solutions since appointing them to manage our tyres on a pence per kilometre basis in 2010. When the time came to review our tyre strategy, it was clear that extending our current Effitires contract was the best decision for the business,” says Ralph Roberts, managing director at McGill’s.
“With Michelin Solutions, we know our fleet is in expert hands. Plus, as we can keep track of the tyre costs we expect to face throughout the contract, we can focus purely on delivering an outstanding service to our customers.”
Michelin regrooves all tyres across the fleet, helping McGill’s to save money on fuel, as this extends the life of the tyre in its most fuel-efficient state. McGill’s also fits Michelin Remix retread tyres.
