FlixBus works with Berrys Coaches and Roselyn Coaches

FlixBus will expand its scheduled network into South West England from 28 April in collaboration with Berrys Coaches and Roselyn Coaches. They will operate a service between London and Plymouth, calling at Bridgwater, Taunton and Exeter.

Coaches will run daily, with frequency increasing over the summer to meet what FlixBus says is “expected high demand.” Berrys Coaches already works with the mobility company through the availability of seats on some of its Superfast connections via FlixBus channels. That will continue, but Berrys will also grow its fleet to become part of the green FlixBus network. The new service will also be supported by vehicles from Coachmarque member Roselyn Coaches.

FlixBus UK Managing Director Andreas Schörling says that partnerships with Berrys and Roselyn are “strategically important” as the business opens service to South West England.

“We have been thoroughly impressed by Berrys’ commitment to our vision and high quality service, and we are delighted to welcome the team and drivers on board. We know that Roselyn Coaches is also a brilliant operator, so we are excited to start working with it.”

Berrys Coaches Transport Manager James Berry notes that the decision to develop an existing partnership with FlixBus was “obvious.” He adds: “With our strong brands aligning, there is a clear opportunity for growth within the region. We are convinced that this will be a successful, long-term relationship for us and we are excited to strengthen our joint venture with FlixBus.”

Roselyn Coaches MD Jonathan Ede comments: “FlixBus is a global player and we are looking forward to benefiting from its technological expertise across routes, pricing and marketing, as well as the innovative ticketing system. We are extremely proud to be working with FlixBus on its new routes from the West Country.”

Mr Schörling has underlined FlixBus’s ambition to have the UK’s largest scheduled coach network. He adds that the business is seeking further operator partners as it plans further expansion.

andy burnham tfgm £15.6 billion (1) The funding announced by Chancellor Rachel Reeves today (4 June) has been allocated to several combined mayoral authorities to use on rail, tram, road and bus infrastructure. Transport for Greater Manchester revealed today that part of the £2.5 billion it will receive will go towards making the Bee Network fully battery-electric by 2030. An as-yet undecided portion of that will support a planned investment in 1,000 new zero-emission buses over that period, the mayoral authority said. That is part of plans to build the UK's "first fully integrated, zero-emission public transport system", with trams and trains also set to benefit. Liverpool City Region's already announced BRT system is among the projects to which its £1.6 billion will be allocated. Under those plans - due for realisation by 2028 - a high-speed network will be served by articulated buses which are modelled on the 'Glider' in Belfast. It is due to link Liverpool city centre with John Lennon Airport, and Liverpool FC and Everton FC's respective stadia along three routes. Although the model of bus has not been confirmed, a Van Hool Exqui.City on loan from Belfast was last year used as a demonstrator. That 18m vehicle can accommodate around 30% more passengers than a typical bus and has three sets of double doors. The funding will also go towards buses elsewhere in the city as the region heads towards franchising services by 2027. Liverpool Mayor Steve Rotheram with a 'Glider' which was on loan from Belfast last year - an example of the sort of bus which could serve the new BRT Bus services in the East Midlands region will be boosted by the funding, thanks to the £2 billion handed to it today by the government. Some of that allocation will be used for a rapid transit network on the Trent Arc between Nottingham and Derby. Between the two cities, the Freeport, Infinity Park Investment Zone and Ratcliffe-on-Soar will also benefit from the improved bus services. South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority's newly announced commitment towards bus franchising has been boosted by £350 million in funding as part of that region's allocation. The funding for West Yorkshire will help build new bus stations in Bradford and Wakefield. Likewise, the Tees Valley Mayoral Authority will put its sum towards a new £15 million bus station in Middlesbrough. Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander says: "Today marks a watershed moment on our journey to improving transport across the North and Midlands – opening up access to jobs, growing the economy and driving up quality of life as we deliver our Plan for Change. "For too long, people in the North and Midlands have been locked out of the investment they deserve. With £15.6bn of government investment, we’re giving local leaders the means to drive cities, towns and communities forward, investing in Britain’s renewal so you and your family are better off."
