The Team
Hugh Frost
Design and Concept Originator
Hugh is an established, professional designer with a flair for invention and original thinking. He has gained considerable experience in materials handling systems and freight logistics whilst working in various sectors of the horticulture Industry, and more recently while developing his freight handling system.
He feels passionately that the solution for city congestion is not just an efficient bus but more; intermodal freight and public transport working together to produce a quantum leap addressing all the key issues of today’s modern transport system requirements.
He would like to thank all those who have advised, assisted, brainstormed, drawn, written, argued and encouraged him in the development of his Freight/Bus concept, and in the preparation of this report and the ideas, designs it contains. In particular, I would like to thank the following:-
