PATS have a fleet of approximately 80 yellow buses and we employ our own drivers and passenger assistants. All staff working on our buses have been trained to ensure passengers are safely transported. All staff who work for PATS have been checked by the police and hold an enhanced CRB (criminal record bureau) certificate.
As so many people use our transport we also work closely with private hire companies based in Leicester. This enables us to meet the demands for our service and the companies we use will transport you to the same standards required by our own staff.
