NINE new buses have been launched in Barnsley, following a £1.85m investment by Stagecoach Yorkshire.
The double decker vehicles, on service 66, will operate between Barnsley, Worsbrough, Birdwell, Hoyland and Elsecar, and will have free, on-board USB sockets for passengers to charge mobile phones, tablets, laptops and other electronic devices.
Buses will include life-size images of Stagecoach Barnsley department team members, including engineers, drivers, cleaners, administration staff and service controllers.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
