The aim of National Express Bus and The Metro is to have an overall positive impact on the environment, with journeys made on our services resulting in less pollution than would be the case if our customers chose other modes of transport.
We are committed to taking the lead in looking to maintain the environmental advantages of public transport and we will work with industry bodies and key stakeholders to achieve this. National Express Bus will report publicly on our environmental performance in the Group Corporate Responsibility Report.
Recognising that our operations can also have an impact on the environment, we are trying to minimise the effects through good management practice.
