Buses in Essex in the 21st Century

Buses in Essex in the 21st Century Synopsis

Essex is a diverse county ranging from the urban areas in the south, such as Brentwood, Basildon and the huge Southend conurbation, to the less built-up central and northern areas, which include interesting places such as Chelmsford, Braintree, Halstead, Colchester, Billericay, Finchingfield, Clacton and Walton on the Naze. The varied nature of Essex is reflected in the fascinating abundance of bus operators in the county, ranging from national operators such as Arriva and First, to growing regional companies such as Stephensons and Hedingham and small independents such as the now defunct Panther and Regal Busways. David Moth explores the buses covering almost every corner of Essex through a wealth of colour images and informative captions.
