In 2009, Whippet moved to a modern workshop near Swavesey where we operate to this day. In 2014, the Lee family sold the business to Tower Transit and we're now part of the Ascendal Group. We operate full-electric buses on the Universal route for the University of Cambridge and most of the rest of our fleet meets the strict 'Euro VI' low emission standards. We also run national and international coach services for Flixbus. We're proud of our history, and to look forward to continuing to serve local communities...
Whippet has a long and rich history, having first started running buses in 1919. Mr & Mrs Henry Lee moved from London to Graveley, and having previously sold bicycles Mr Lee started his first bus service with a converted American ambulance with seating for 14. This first service ran from the village of Graveley into St Neots, and shortly after routes to St Ives and Cambridge were started.
