Go-Ahead companies shortlisted for UK bus awards
Go-Ahead is pleased to note that several of its bus operating companies have been shortlisted for awards at the UK Bus Awards.
The range of award categories reflects our Group-wide strategic priorities of customers, our people, society and finance.
Commenting on the shortlist Tony Depledge, chairman of the UK Bus Awards, said the quality and talent of the finalists did the 20th year of the awards proud.
“The spirit of the awards is one of celebration – rewarding hard work and innovation. What has stood out in particular for the judges from this year’s entries is operators trying new things to see if they work and also engaging in genuine dialogue with colleagues and industry stakeholders.”
