espite two notable omissions – Daimler Buses and Volvo Buses – Busworld Europe will take place in Brussels Expo on October 9–14. The Busworld team says its normal preparations are going “full speed ahead” and media campaigns are being booked and will start in April. The Busworld Awards organisation had its first meeting and will send the invitation to all bus manufacturers and also the sales department is adding new exhibitors every day, it confirms.
