On Monday the 17th August 2009, Tiger Line will be launching the second of its commercial bus services T2.
The new service will link Hemel Hempstead to Watford via Apsley and Kings Langley. Initially the service will be Monday – Friday on an hourly frequency but with future frequency upgrades planned subject to demand.
In the morning and evening peaks the service will position from and back to the Tigers Den in Chesham. This will provide a direct link from Chesham to Watford via Berkhamsted and Hemel Hempstead.
The service will be launched with coach style single deck buses, as used on the existing T1 service from Hemel Hempstead to Aylesbury.
The service requires a team of dedicated staff. Drivers from Hemel Hempstead, with extensive experience, have been recruited specifically for the service. They have been selected for their positive attitude, knowledge and a desire to deliver a high quality service.
The Tiger Line ethos is to provide great service at fares people can afford, which encourages them to travel. Therefore single/return fares will be considerably less than existing fares on this corridor and there will be a great range of tickets for regular users. Of course the holders of the National Concessionary Pass/London Freedom Pass will be very welcome.
Michael Wootten, Operations Director of Tiger Line said “We are launching this new service in response to calls from our customers in Hemel Hempstead. As a local company we have been taking on board their comments and understand their needs.
They have told us they want a more reliable link from Hemel Hempstead to Watford, they want affordable fares and they want choice. Our new service is designed to do this and although we are starting with an hourly timetable, we have big plans for the future.
If the people living on the Hemel Hempstead-Apsley-Kings Langley-Watford corridor use our service to the full, then I can promise them more departures and a high quality service well into the future.”
