Blackbird Leys bus drivers are to wear name tags in a bid by Stagecoach to become more friendly.

The bus firm is to refurbish its fleet of buses serving Blackbird Leys, in east Oxford, which carry 50,000 passengers a week.

Drivers are to wear name tags so people who use the Blackbird Flyer buses can get to know the team.

Stagecoach marketing manager David Whitley said he hoped the plan would provide another incentive for people to use the service.
