First Bus has rolled out four newly converted electric buses in Portsmouth, Fareham, and Gosport, as part of a larger order for 32 units. These repowered vehicles, refurbished to near-new condition and converted to electric power by Wrightbus, are set to enhance local transport routes, including those to the University. This initiative follows the earlier electrification of First Bus's depot in Fareham and the introduction of 62 new electric buses. Key figures emphasize the project's role in promoting low-carbon public transport and its benefits for the community.
We are proud to introduce these four converted electric buses to Portsmouth, Fareham and Gosport. This initiative not only provides a second life for existing vehicles but also delivers a low-carbon, sustainable transport option that benefits both passengers and the wider community.
The success of electric buses in Portsmouth has already shown how quieter, cleaner, and greener travel benefits our city. Cost-effectively re-powering these buses from diesel to electric is a smart way to bring forward another step in our commitment to deliver affordable, sustainable, and zero-emission transport for everyone.
