Sustainable development means meeting the needs of the present without forgoing the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. At Busfleet, we believe our industry has an important role to play in assisting society to become more sustainable through the provision of sustainable passenger transport solutions.
Through a collaborative approach involving our employees, passengers, customers and regulators, Busfleet aims to improve the customer experience so that bus passenger transportation becomes the preferred mode of transportation for society. Our commitment to sustainability is underpinned by a number of key principles:

- 'Minimising risk' means we will take all reasonable steps to eliminate injury and illness to employees, contractors, passengers and the environment.
- 'Reducing our impact on the environment' through the adoption of low or zero emission technologies in vehicles and reducing the environmental footprint of our facilities.
