New low floor, battery electric, zero emission buses will be rolling in to Nevada County within two years.
The Board of Supervisors on Tuesday approved the purchase of the two 35-foot buses along with an on-route fast charger, bus yard slow charger and installation for just over $2.4 million.
According to Transit Services Manager Robin Van Valkenburgh, the fast charger will be embedded in the ground proposed at the Tinloy Transit Center allowing it to recharge during layovers.
“It’s not a huge charge, but it equates to about 10 miles per charge, which helps to ensure that the vehicles are able to run routes all day long without the need to go back to the depot and charge up there,” Van Valkenburgh said.
