A bus has delighted passengers with its football-themed decorations.
First Wessex has caught football fever in celebration of the Euros as staff have gone all out decorating a bus on the number 1 Weymouth to Portland route in support of the England team.
The bus will be travelling across all Weymouth routes in the future.
The decorations have been met with great feedback from passengers.
Leanne Rowland-Bright, Staff Manager at First Wessex, said: “We know our customers enjoy our themed buses and what better way to get behind the Euros than with a special Euros bus.
“We’ve had great feedback from both staff and passengers so far. You can catch it across our local routes in Weymouth for the duration of the tournament.”
Throughout the bus there are football-themed balloons, gold foil balloons spelling out ‘GOAL,’ as well as a selection of flags and bunting.
On the windows lettering spells out ‘come on England’ in red, white and blue colouring.
England remain top of their group after their first two matches, although there's disquiet about their performance so far.
They beat Serbia 1-0 in their first match and then proceeded to draw 1-1 with Denmark.
The team’s next match will take place against Slovenia on Tuesday, June 25, at 8pm.
It comes after the bus company decorated one of their buses with a love theme for Valentine’s Day.
One of their vehicles was decked out with heart shaped balloons, cupid stickers and ‘I love you’ teddy bears to welcome passengers on board.
