It is not every day a bus gets a police escort, but prior to the 2012 London Olympics, Stagecoach took part in the Olympic Torch Relay around Britain with one of the new Wright Streetlites, 43005 (CN12ARX) used to transport the torch. It is seen in July arriving at the Bisham roundabout on the A404 about to call in at Bisham Abbey Sports Centre.

The bus, simply numbered 5, enters the roundabout.

A map on the rear of the Streetlite shows the torch's journey around the UK. It is believed other South Wales Streetlites were involved in other parts of the tour.

The bus parks up whilst ceremonies take place inside the Abbey Sports Centre.
