Richard Bros goes for four Optare MetroCity buses

Family run bus and coach operator Richard Bros has added four Optare Metrocity buses to its fleet.

The firm, which runs transport services in Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire, specified Euro 5, 11.5m-long buses with 41-seat capacity.

"We already operate 18 Optare vehicles – including Solo, Versa and Tempo models – and we are very happy with the performance of these vehicles," states Marteine Richards, director at Richard Bros.

"We were particularly impressed with the MetroCity's manoeuvrability, styling and potential for fuel economies over heavier vehicles with similar seating capacities," he adds.

The buses have been finished to a high specification, with WiFi, passenger announcement systems, passenger count and telematics.
