This small company is one of the few that maintains a rival service to First Bus. If ever you want to feel reassured that “community” still exists travel on the A Bus in the morning rush. The drivers know almost everyone by name and vice versa. When the bus didn’t turn up a few weeks ago at least 3 people in the queue had the driver’s mobile phone number and called him to find out where he was (broken down on West Town Lane). SMS Text alerts for the A-Bus are my personal top-priority! I often get the ‘A-Bus’ along the Bath Road to work. This small company is one of the few that maintains a rival service to First Bus.

We're a small company trying to make it economically viable to invest in all things green from stationery through to electricity suppliers. Is anyone interested in forming a green buying consortium with us to help combat the premiums you tend to pay for ethical/sustainable products?
