What Happened
Alexander Dennis has delivered another two Enviro400 double-deckers to Skills Motor Coaches of Nottingham, following eight identical buses supplied last year. Skills chose Alexander Dennis based on its experience with an Enviro400 bought in 2017, which still serves actively. The initial order of six buses in 2025 was later increased by two after Skills won a contract to operate the Medilink service for Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust.
