We continue on our fleet transition towards a 100% ULEV fleet for @PowysCC This electric van is one of two based at our workshops for our fitters to respond to call outs etc. Range of around 160 miles on one charge so more than enough to cover half the county the size of Powys!

[Powys Transport & Fleet @PTUPowys]

Definitely one to be used as part of our professional driver training program. Hard hitting but really important message.

[Heddlu Dyfed-Powys Police @DyfedPowys]

A hard hitting, and difficult to watch, video highlighting the dangers of using a mobile phone at the wheel. Switch off before you drive off. #fatal5

[Powys recycles @PowysRecycles]

We'll be attending this event to show case careers in highways, transport & recycling with HGV drivers & mechanics needed for @powyshighways @PowysRecycles @PowysccS @PTUPowys @PowysCC_HTR @PCCvacancies

To clarify, the Red weather warning covers South Wales not Powys but many of our buses travel throughout South Wales.

[Powys Transport & Fleet @PTUPowys]

PLEASE NOTE: Due to the Red Weather Warning in place across much of Wales tomorrow (18/02/2022) we have suspended our local bus services in the morning until midday at the earliest. We will update you as soon as conditions improve and it is safe to operate services again

[Powys County Council @PowysCC]

Great to be able to work with the management team @TanatValley to trial their new buses which are more fuel efficient and practical on some of your rural local services to help mange costs as we recover from the pandemic. Great looking, comfy vehicles too! #PowysmeansBUSiness

School Transport
Please note that as of Monday 1 November all duplicate school buses will no longer be operating and students will need to return to their normal service bus.

Out with the old and in with the new. Just taken delivery of the latest low emission 26t trade and domestic recycling trucks. These could possibly be the last diesel powered recycling vehicles we purchase as we transition to #zeroemission by 2030. @PowysRecycles @PowysCC

We're looking for someone to help us manage our transport & countryside grants. Background in either discipline is not essential, may suit someone from a finance / audit background? Really good opportunity to gain experience in a Local Authority.

Best wishes to Mykaela who leaves us today after 13 years with the Council to take on the challenge of looking after her 4 boys (including Andrew) 😁rather than looking after the transport arrangements for 5000 school kids! Its been a pleasure working with you from all @PowysCC

[Powys Transport & Fleet @PTUPowys]

Despite a very uncertain year for @PowysCC school bus contractors, when we asked, they delivered. Literally! Below is a pic of just 56 of the 1100 laptops our contractors delivered to @powyseducation primary & secondary schools this week. Massive thanks - Diolch

[Powys Transport & Fleet @PTUPowys]

Public transport is still for essential journeys only. If you have to use it though, please remember to wear your face covering. @PowysCC @PowysCC_HTR @powyshighways

@philbincarr @PowysCC @powyseducation @PowysCC_HTR Hi Natalie. Can you resend to [email protected] I'll make sure you get a response today. Thank you

[Powys Transport & Fleet @PTUPowys]

We would like to reduce the demand on our #checkincatchup school transport, so please consider #activetravel for the school journey. Only use school transport if you have no other way to get your children to their Check In Catch Up days. @PowysCC @powyseducation @PowysCC_HTR
