"The news that Wrightbus is to continue its long-standing partnership with London Transport by building the new iconic bus to replace the Routemaster is great news.
 
"It is rare that within the one week you get to congratulate a local company on winning two significant orders, but this is the happy position with Wrightbus this week, following their selection on Monday to build 60 new buses for Translink.
 
"The cutting edge technology and style of the new London bus will make it a trailblazer. It is marvellous that Wrightbus will be the manufacturer.
 
"So, well done again to the management and workforce at Wrightbus."
