Six ALX 400/Denis Trident2 double deck buses entered service with Newport Transport in January 2000.These were the first ever Dennis chassis in the Newport fleet and are used predominately on Service 30 between Newport and Cardiff.The striking graphic design was chosen following a competition among local art students.The design is based on a steel sculpture know as the 'Newport Wave' which stands on a bank of the river Usk in the city centre.It represents Newports links with steel making and the sea.
