Description
The Wrightbus, StreetDeck by David Barrow Hardcover, 120 pages, published April 2023. The origins of Wrightbus date back to 1946, when Robert Wright & Son Coachbuilders was founded in Northern Ireland. The company has since grown and evolved, with William Wright being awarded a Knighthood in the Queen's New Year's honors in 2017. Today, Wrightbus is known for its innovative StreetDeck buses, manufactured from 2014 onwards. The StreetDeck is built in both single and double-deck variations, with the latter being the most common. The company has made significant strides in reducing emissions, with 70% of production now powered by zero-emission technology. With a workforce expected to reach nearly 1,000 by the end of 2022, Wrightbus continues to play an important role in the transportation industry.
