First Bus is one of the UK’s largest bus operators – and the partner of choice for innovative and sustainable transport. Leading the transition to a low-carbon future, First Bus has committed to operating a zero-emission bus fleet by 2035 and to not purchase any new diesel buses after December 2022. Working proactively with local authority partners, First Bus is proud to be making a positive impact on air quality, tackling congestion and improving customer experience.
Making bus journeys easier for customers, First Bus was the first national bus operator to accept contactless card payments across all services and the First Bus app is voted ‘best in class’ amongst UK bus operators. We work closely with the local communities we serve, providing job opportunities and support for local projects and campaigns that help deliver growth and inclusivity.
Buses are a lifeline for many people and they play an important role in linking communities and providing travel for people of all ages and backgrounds. Our network of services and professional driving teams take people to work, school, college, university, medical appointments, job interviews and leisure activities every day of the week.
