Yorkshire bus firm Transdev has rolled out the first of its fleet of hybrid buses serving Leeds Bradford Airport.
The first of 15 new ultra-low emission buses entered service on Thursday 3 July 2025 on three dedicated routes linking Leeds, Bradford, Harrogate and Otley with the Airport.
Transdev’s new Mercedes Benz Citaro buses are larger than their predecessors, but also run cleaner with less CO2 emissions.

Transdev Managing Director Henri Rohard said: “Our investment in the most up-to-date hybrid technology is providing a full aviation designed and dedicated fleet to Leeds Bradford Airport, giving airline customers, our customers in general and our colleagues a much more comfortable, accessible and environmentally friendly journey than ever before”.
Vincent Hodder, CEO, Leeds Bradford Airport (LBA), said: “We’re delighted to welcome the new hybrid offering to the ‘Flyer’ fleet at LBA”.
“These bespoke hybrid vehicles will not only provide our customers with a more comfortable journey to the airport, but they also use less fuel than their traditional counterparts. In turn, this helps to play an important role in reducing our Scope 3 emissions, and supports our journey to Net Zero.”
