The order adds to RTA’s 2019 purchase of 23 Xcelsior buses and will revitalize its fleet by replacing end-of-life vehicles as part of the agency’s strategic mobility plan.
The 54 40-foot buses are equipped with new amenities to make the riding experience more enjoyable for both customers and drivers.
The contract follows multiple prior orders from ETS, with New Flyer having delivered over 1,100 buses to the agency since 1992.
Honolulu, the UK, and Houston are adding new clean-diesel, colorful single-deck coaches, and luxury motorcoachs and buses.
The City of Albuquerque and SFMTA are adding clean diesel and battery-electric buses, respectively.
The 40-foot clean-diesel buses feature USB ports for customers to charge their mobile devices.
The new fleet will replace older buses currently in operation, while growing the agency’s service footprint to support its Vision 2020 strategic plan.
The new buses, operating under the CTtransit name, replace older vehicles in the fleet with newer, more fuel-efficient buses.
The blend is legally classified as a diesel fuel, which eliminates any operational or potential warranty concerns users may have.
The order is part of a six-year contract, with the company set to begin production of year four coaches starting in September of 2019.
