First Bus has launched a new uniform for drivers following feedback.

The new uniform includes tailored blouses with modesty buttons for female drivers, a sholo - shirt meets polo - and bodywarmer, to help provide comfort for drivers, as well as new trainer-style shoes.

First Bus is one of the only companies in the UK to introduce the sholo. 

Updated blouses, for female drivers, now include hidden modesty buttons, which aim to help female drivers feel more comfortable.

Adrian Worsfold, Operations Director at First Manchester, said: “Our drivers are our ambassadors, so it is important that they look the part.

"We have listened to feedback and we’re proud to be unveiling the new driver uniform, which has already been trialled in depots across the UK and has received positive feedback from drivers.

"Bus travel has changed dramatically in recent years and even more so in the diversity of drivers that can now be seen transporting our customers around the region, so we’re pleased that we have been able to update our uniform so that it can suit the needs of all our drivers.”
