What’s the next (bus) stop?

There’s something additionally exciting about zero emissions buses. Sometimes hype doesn’t translate into outcomes… Sometimes things are far more progressed than some might realise:

It’s happening now.

All cities and communities are different, and have unique challenges. I’m proud to be working in this exciting space and look forward to riding in fully electric buses as a matter of course.
