Gloucestershire welcomes new electric buses!
Clean, quiet, electric.
At Stagecoach, we are going electric across Gloucestershire. Some of our Gloucester, Cheltenham and Tewkesbury services are switching to zero emission buses. And with every journey you make on an electric bus, isn't it great knowing you will be helping to make Gloucestershire a greener county to live in?
Why Stagecoach is making the transition to electric buses
Just one electric bus saves 66 tonnes of CO2 per year compared to a standard bus. That’s the same as the emissions produced by driving a petrol car 169,000 miles. The project is expected to save an estimated 9,200 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions annually, equivalent to removing over 6,000 cars from the road. Stagecoach is making a huge equivalent to removing over 6,000 cars from the road. Stagecoach is making a huge investment to deliver the new electric buses and the infrastructure to support them.
Our commitment to a greener future
Stagecoach aims to operate a fully electric bus across the whole UK by 2035.
