VOSA & Health and Safety
Each coach operation in the industry has a VOSA officer monitoring and managing compliance of their fleet maintenance. We have our own workshop and have done full maintenance of our own fleet for many years. Our highly tooled workshops and staff training make our vehicles fully maintained , safe and reliable to use for carrying passengers day in day out.
We have now decided to move over to a full operating lease agreement on all vehicles and to enter into all contracts based on the provision of brand new vehicles that have a bumper to bumper guarantee and after care that protects all vehicles for five years.
Our fleet of vehicles will remain on full operating leases that are on five year rolling agreement. Our contracts are secure and so is the fleet servicing the contracts. It is a win-win for everyone.
