Blue bus in the blue skies above #York. Dave from our @FirstYork engineering team is preparing one of our electric⚡️ @Optaregroup buses for its MOT this morning.
Despite COVID having a severe impact on the bus industry and the amount of buses on the road over the last 12 months, we are thrilled that the Metrodeckers at Metroline have delivered 1 million electric miles!
Today I've launched a £120m scheme to introduce zero emission buses 🚌 across the country. We’re inviting authorities to submit their bids for funding as we strive to decarbonise our transport network, improve air quality & #BuildBackGreener ✅ gov.uk/government/new…
We are pleased to see funds being made available to start the delivery of 4,000 new zero emission buses.
Today’s new scheme is making up to £120m available to start delivering 4,000 new zero emission buses on our roads, helping decarbonise the entire transport network by 2050. 🍃🚌⚡ Learn more about our plans to #BuildBackGreener 👉 gov.uk/government/new… #FutureOfTransport

Dr Andy Palmer @ Autocar Pro EV Forum: "I hope India & the rest of the world legislates urgent adoption of EV buses. Buses, delivery vehicles & taxis are the prevalent source of pollutants in urban air & the easiest to fix. I call upon all govts to expedite their replacement."
New or old - the @FirstYork engineering team carry out regular inspections on our fleet. Here's one of our electric @Optaregroup Metrodecker 🚌⚡️🔋vehicles being lifted ahead of its check up. #Metrodeckerrising
We are saddened to hear the news that Sir Captain Tom Moore has died. He was an inspiration to his country at a time when it was needed the most. Our heartfelt condolences to his family.
