Bus passengers on an Oxford estate will get a smoother ride, with the arrival of £600,000 worth of vehicles.

Rose Hill residents are the latest passengers to benefit from buses introduced by operators Stagecoach Oxfordshire.

The fleet, which was launched on Sunday, is bigger, smoother and quieter than the fleet of low-floor buses which previously served the estate.

Stagecoach marketing manager David Whitley said: "Rose Hill was the first low-floor route we introduced three years ago. Until now there had been no further major investment.

"We believe Rose Hill residents will see the benefits of these more spacious and airy vehicles. The buses are of a far higher standard."
