Vehicle Configuration

LR Licence Mine Buses

MineBus mine bus

Mine buses that can be driven on an LR (Light Rigid) licence — widening your pool of site-ready drivers.

What matters on site

  • Gross vehicle mass kept within LR licence limits
  • More of your workforce able to legally drive the bus
  • Lower licensing and training overhead
  • Ideal for camp shuttles and smaller crews

How MineBus configures it

Where driver availability is the constraint, we configure personnel carriers and small crew buses to sit within LR licence parameters — so supervisors and crew with an LR can legally drive the run.

Best-fit models: I-Bus 31-seat

Compliance built in

Every build is referenced to the standards your HSE team audits — ADR 59 rollover strength, ADR 68/01 occupant protection and seat-belt awareness, ADR 80/04 (Euro 6) emissions and AS 5062 fire suppression — and documented for first-time site entry. See the compliance library →

Frequently asked questions

What licence is needed to drive a mine bus?
It depends on the bus's gross vehicle mass and seating. Smaller personnel carriers can be configured for an LR (Light Rigid) licence; larger coaches require MR, HR or HC. We help you spec to your available driver pool.
Why choose an LR-licence mine bus?
It widens the number of workers who can legally drive the vehicle, reducing reliance on specifically-licensed drivers for crew shuttles.
