Both Enviro models are available in overall lengths of 34 feet and 35 feet 9 inches, and an overall width of 94.5 inches, to help with movement in congested traffic.
The answer, in their view, is to have a full low-floor layout, with passengers moving through the bus from the front entrance to a rear exit.
The interior layout of the Enviro 200 encouraged passengers to move right through the bus, and seems a very sensible development, especially where smart cards and off-bus ticketing are available.

The Plaxton Pointer II and Alexander ALX 200 bodies, both of which are currently built in the same factory, the former Alexander factory in Falkirk, Scotland, are due to be replaced in Spring 2002, by a new body, provisionally to be called the TransBus Enviro 200.
This new body is a mix of the Plaxton and Alexander designs, mainly with a Plaxton designed front (Though quite different to the Pointer II), with Alexander sides (Theses do resemble current Alexander designs with the large cantrail).
The numbering system will be as the current Alexander range, and so there will be a full length version as the Enviro 300, and a Double Deck Enviro 400.
