'Local' is key to the Go-Ahead philosophy. We believe that transport services are best delivered at a local level. We empower our local managers and operate our companies as autonomous business units.
Go-Ahead is committed to reducing the environmental impacts of its operations. We were the first public transport company to have been officially certified with the Carbon Trust Standard after taking action on climate change.
Our Group target is to reduce carbon emissions per passenger journey by 20% by 2015.

Outside London, we run bus services in Oxford, the South East, Southern and North East England.

Our rail operation is the busiest in the UK and is responsible for nearly 30% per cent of all UK passenger rail journeys.
We operate every single train that arrives into London Victoria Station, including the Gatwick Express.
