    The NTA some standard for the temperature provided. and should require all operators to have thermometers monitoring their vehicles. This data should be published.

    21 Deg C is the setting for the Saloon Temperature Thermostats on WrightBus vehicles.

    No DB vehicles have Air Conditioning fitted.

    The specification of DB vehicles since 2012 is dictated by the NTA,who,in this case may well be worth contacting in relation to improving the situation ?

    AV class had/have fantastic AC.
    For a few brief months when they where first in service drivers found out about the Temp control in behind the panel above the luggage rack.
    In the hottest of summer days you could have the bus a lovely cold temp, it was fantastic, many passengers would say it was great when getting off the bus.
    Then DB put a metal bracket over the Temp controls, and you could no longer adjust the temp, back to hot sweaty summer buses.
