Here's What Our Operators Have To Say

"I like that my office view changes every day and I am constantly learning new skills on how to manoeuvre these long heavy vehicles. I enjoy and appreciate the supportive work environment and helpful work colleagues" – Pauline, Carina Depot

"When I started training, I was amazed and terrified at the sheer size of the buses I was learning to drive. After my initial training, I have grown quite comfortable driving the bus and now after more time in the role, I actually miss driving when I am not at work" - Mandy, Sherwood Depot
