Go-Ahead has just become the first travel company to achieve the Carbon Trust Standard. The company operates the Gatwick Express train service from Gatwick Airport to central London, train services in southern England and the Midlands and numerous public bus routes throughout the U.K. What this means is that Go-Ahead has …
