People's
Express began
operating bus services on Tuesday 4th May 1993 as Pete's Travel when they introduced two Dodge minibuses on the 404 route between
Walsall and West Browmich. With the adding of journeys on the service 79 the
fleet had grown to six vehicles by the end of that year. The vehicles were
painted in all over white with red Pete’s Travel lettering. In May 1994
the company acquired Lionspeed an Erdington based minibus operator who was
running a mixture of commercial and Centro sponsored services in North
Birmingham. The company was successful in gaining Centro contracts in its
own right in October 1994 and by February 1995 the company was operating
25 minibuses which were mainly second hand Dodge vehicles.
The
Purchase of Lionspeed Pete’s adopted the latter company’s green
and yellow livery for the whole fleet. In May 1996 the company moved
to the Church Lane Industrial Estate in West Bromwich where 50
minibuses could be parked undercover. At around the same time the
first new vehicles were acquired these being four Mercedes minibuses
which were operated initially under a new company called the Busy
Bus Company. In January 1997 following the demise The Little Red Bus
Company Pete’s Travel took over a number of that company’s
Centro contracts together with nine Dodge minibuses. In October 1996
the company had won a large number of Centro contracts and there was
a requirement for more vehicles and so the company leased them from
Cheshire Bus & Coach. Pete’s wanted six Mercedes Vario
minibuses but the leasing company could not get hold of enough so a
number of other vehicle types were loaned on a temporary basis
including a low floor Dennis Dart. This was put to work on the 119
service in Sutton Coldfield to the disgust of Travel West Midlands
who themselves were only just starting acquire low floor vehicles.
The first Dart proved popular and was joined by 3 more in June 1997.
In May 1997, Pete's Travel took over Erdington based North
Warwickshire Travel and in July, took a 50% interest in People
Express of West Bromwich, who operated 13 vehicles based in Siddons
Lane, West Bromwich. The remainder of this company and their Centro
contracts were taken over in June 1998. Towards the end of 1998 the
company expanded into Coventry, Telford and Bridgnorth following the
winning of contracted services. In February of that year the company
also consolidated on a new single site at Hill Top in West Bromwich.
This allowed the company to acquire double deck vehicles for the
operation of Centro school contracts. In October 2001 the company
opened new depots at Coventry to operate both Centro and
Warwickshire County Council contracts and at Redditch to operate
Worcestershire County Council and Centro contracts together with
some commercial services in Redditch following there withdrawal by
