Project Grant
Overview
Grant Description
Application purpose: Acquisition of five (5) diesel-electric hybrid buses for replacement of buses reaching end of useful life.
Activities performed: The project will support the procurement of five (5) hybrid diesel-electric buses.
Expected outcomes: The replacement of buses will address system safety reliability and efficiency needs.
Compared to a standard diesel bus, a diesel-electric hybrid bus significantly reduces energy use, harmful air pollutants, and carbon emissions.
Intended beneficiaries: The retirement of outdated buses will reduce the likelihood of service disruptions that would affect on-time arrival to destinations, especially critical for those who depend on WSTA to access employment, educational, and health resources.
Subrecipient activities: None.
