In the past few years more than £5 million has been invested in new buses to upgrade bus services across First in Devon and Cornwall and demonstrates the company's commitment to delivering better public transport in the region.

To further improve the quality of public transport in Devon & Cornwall we have introduced new low floor easy access buses. Our network of bus services in Plymouth city is now nearly entirely low floor operation, making buses easier to use for everyone, but especially the elderly, parents with buggies, and disabled users.

The delivery of the new buses has brought the average age of the bus fleet down to 7.9 years, below the Department for Transport's target of 8 years.
