The purchase of five new large-capacity electric buses will help to solve the problem of delivering passengers to a remote sleeping area of Odessa. Here is how the head of the commission of the housing and communal sector of the city commented on this decision Alexander Ivanitskiy :
- “The decision was made taking into account the fact that last year, due to quarantine restrictions, passenger traffic in this direction decreased by 30%.
- The purchase of innovative buses will reduce the costs of carriers without reducing the traffic intensity. "
At the same time, the costs include only the purchase of the passenger vehicles themselves, which absolutely do not require any reconstruction or re-equipment of the highway.
Benefits of electric buses
Despite their impressive size and solid passenger capacity with comfortable accommodation of passengers inside the cabin (heating, air conditioning, comfortable chairs), electric buses are fully powered by the electric batteries installed in them. The charging itself will be carried out at the final stop and will take no more than 5 minutes.
