Alexander Dennis is to provide a further 50 zero-emission buses to Transport for Greater Manchester. The electric buses will enter service in Bury, Rochdale and Oldham when the second tranche of franchising launches there in April 2024. The first 50 ebuses will operate in Wigan and Bolton from September, for which Go North West and Diamond are the appointed operators. Transport commissioner for Greater Manchester Vernon Everitt, said: 'There is strong momentum towards the delivery of the Bee Network - an integrated London-style transport system - and bus franchising alongside our Metrolink trams means we have a solid foundation to build from. High demand for safe, reliable and affordable public transport in the region will only increase as we progressively join up our fares, ticketing and information systems to make using public transport easier and more accessible for everyone. |
