Arriva bus order for 2015
RE: Arriva bus order for 2015
I've had a go at breaking down the 2015 order according to Bus Lists, Flickr photos and other websites. With the Enviro400s, things are simple: the majority are now delivered as of April 2015, with the North West's second batch the last order remaining, due to start delivery imminently. The destination of all 165 is known.

However, the single deck order is a lot more complicated. The above press release refers to 28 Wright Streetlite Max buses for the North East (Sapphire specification), with six not referred to - Birkenhead's 487 order? Things have evidently changed however as 25 standard specification Streetlites have been delivered to Telford. Now, my understanding is that the North East will be using the former Bootle Pulsar 2s on the Sapphire 6/7 routes in lieu of Streetlites, so have some of these been redirected to Telford instead?

Here's what I have so far:

165 x Alexander Dennis Enviro400
11 x North West (Liverpool Green Lane) for route 10B
26 x North West (St Helens) for routes 10/10A
16 x North West (Bootle) for routes 52/52A
9 x Wales (Chester) for route 10 [Sapphire specification]
17 x Yorkshire (Dewsbury) for routes 202/203 [MAX specification]
9 x The Shires (Aylesbury) for route 280 [Sapphire specification]
6 x Southern Counties (Maidstone) for route 101 [Sapphire specification]
17 x Yorkshire (Belle Isle) for route 110 [Sapphire specification]
7 x North East (Darlington & Durham) for routes 6/7 [Sapphire specification]
35 x North West (Liverpool Green Lane) for routes 12/13 and 15
12 x North West (Liverpool Speke) for route 75

16(?) x Alexander Dennis Enviro200
[Believe the breakdown of these is 6 for Wrexham, 5 for Rhyl and 5 for Southern Counties (Colchester) for Park & Ride]

Wright Streetlite 11.5 metre Max Hybrid (more than 34 on order)
25 x Midlands (Telford) for local routes
[Believe 7 for North East (Durham) to Sapphire specification currently being delivered]

12 x Wright Streetlite 10.8 metre Midi Hybrid
[All 12 understood to be for The Shires (Stevenage)]

Wright Streetlite 8.8 m Micro Hybrid (more than 6 on order)
6 x Southern Counties (Tunbridge Wells) for route 281 [Eco spec]

10(?) x Optare Solo 8.8 metre
[Expected to be for Yorkshire Tiger and Hinckleybus]

3101(i) | 3305 | 3616 | 4012 | 4159 | 4100 | 4102 | 4118 | 4127 | 4475
313044 | 313064 | 313220 | 314206 | 314210 | 315809 | 315839 | 315857 | 507001 | 507002 | 507006 | 507008 | 507009 | 508114 | 508138 | 508208
