Group Travel who operate Private Coach Hire & Bus Services from Bodmin, Cornwall have purchased an Optare Solo to add to their fleet.  

The Mercedes Euro 5, 9.2m, Solo with Allison 2100 transmission seats up to 31 and will operate on the 223 Town Service around Launceston.

Dawn Moon, Director at Group Travel, said, “The vehicle was purchased as a replacement for an older model. Our experience of the Solo has proven it to be particularly flexible with the ability to easily operate in residential urban areas and more remote rural locations as well as being extremely fuel efficient and loved by drivers and passengers alike.  Upgrading to a new Solo was an easy decision for us to make.”

Steph Baker, Regional Sales Manager, Optare, said, “I am delighted that the flexibility and cost effective operation of the Solo has encouraged Group Travel to purchase yet another Solo.”
