Coachbuild Quality project notes

Our customer: East Herts Playbus Association (c/o East Herts Council).

The project: A single-deck playbus
Customer’s brief:

East Herts Playbus Association had received Lottery funding for a brand new single decker bus. They had to organised the build of the bus, and the interior of the bus required a complete re-fit with a full playbus specification.

Coachbuild Quality’s solution:

East Herts Playbus Association were having some problems with the bus company. CQ spoke to a Transbus and suggested that they did not require most of the internal fittings ie:-seats/ floor covering/ windows etc. This meant that Transbus could take one bus off the production line earlier, and it would also be cheaper.

CQ then proceeded to:

Line the walls/floor and ceiling
Fit a water cooled generator and air conditioning unit
install heating & lighting systems / roof vents
Fit vinyl to walls / padded ceiling / Cherry cupboards
 
……and, using bright and practical materials, created:
kitchen area at the front of the bus with oven/hob/sink & kettle
disabled access- toilet and baby changing area
sand pit and cupboards
painting, reading, & quiet areas
TV & play area
……externally, CQ added:

side awning
specially built side doors
paintwork & vinyl livery
CCTV
The outcome:

A practical, all-purpose playbus which met and exceeded the client’s expectations
