When will the first of the last remaining 14 buses start to arrive?
Miles ahead of Stagecoach, who are yet to include the feature as standard. Arriva is of course only including it as standard on "Sapphire" specification routes (68 in total currently), but there are a few extra vehicles (no more than 20 if I recall correctly) dotted around that have gained Next Stop Announcements through various third party funding.
Unsure about when the last of the new buses ordered in the 2014/15 financial year will arrive, but I bet the gap between the last Streetlite and the first of the 14 new buses will allow some time for Saltmeadows Rd to recover! They've been working non-stop since the first new bus arrived a few months ago!
