Going Green

Courtney Coaches is the first UK based Bus Operator to convert vehicles from Mineral Diesel to 100% Soya Oil.

Please read our Biofuel & Food vs. Fuel document for more information.

The conversions have been of particular interest to Mr Tony Blair who visited Milton Park, Business Park in Didcot on Thursday 2nd November 2006 where we operate two vehicles on Soya Oil. These vehicles are used to transport staff in and around the Business Park.

Tony Blair rode on one of Courtney's vehicles around Abingdon, Milton Park Business Park in a demonstration of the Biofuel Technology currently being pioneered by Courtney Coaches.
