Whippet Coaches

In 1919 Henry Lee, a bicycle salesman from London, moved to Graveley in Huntingdonshire, bought an American ambulance and made it into the first Whippet coach. After three generations of family ownership the company recently became part of Ascendal Group. Whippet Coaches takes great pride in operating buses and coaches. Our aim is to operate reliable, reasonably priced services driven by friendly drivers. We run local buses (including one of the routes along the Cambridgeshire Guided Busway) and a National Express service between Cambridge and London Victoria. We also provide services to schools and colleges using a variety of vehicles to suit their different requirements. We are interested in partnership working with local authorities, businesses and education establishments to deliver public transport options that help reduce congestion, improve social inclusion and take some of the stress out of the daily commute. Our current upgrade process has the ultimate objective of ensuring a friendly, respectful and diverse working environment, with all members of staff being fully supported, trained and equipped to operate reliable and comfortable bus services across the region.
