Nicola Shaw, Managing Director, First UK Bus, comments: "By January 2007 we will have switched the majority of our bus fleet to run on either biodiesel or zero sulphur diesel.

This combination of cleaner fuels and lower emissions is a clear demonstration of our commitment to investing in greener vehicles, helping to reduce our carbon footprint and positioning public transport as a socially responsible alternative to the private car."
