On my #bike ride this morning, I saw the first local #ElectricBus. The city had been planning to introduce them in 2026 and so, true to that date, they appear to be operating. Of course, just because I saw it today doesn’t mean they haven’t been around for a while now but it’s good to see them and I hope that most if not all #buses will become electrically powered rather than with #Diesel in the quite near future.

This bus is a bit like #TrenMaya. Not a total fail, has good intentions. And needs a little bit more care to truly unfold its true potential.
Why? Because it runs irregularly and is medium well advertised. But it has power sockets, a WhatsApp only WiFi, a non functional passenger information system and is electric. 🙃 #IE-Tram #Yucatán #ElectricBus #Irizar #transportepublico #Mexico #Mérida #MéridaYucatán -

@UP8 However, the biggest issue, which Toronto has measured, is that they can drive a lot less KM per day because of the need to recharge them. Even the study acknowledges that the bus are doing a lot less KM per day.
So to replace 1 hybrid bus, you need more than 1 electric bus (+1 more driver!), so it's more expensive, even if $/km is lower.
This is the future for sure, but we are going too fast toward replacing hybrid bus and will starve our transit system of precious dollar

Swansea MS meets First Bus to discuss future of city’s transport network
South Wales West MS Tom Giffard has met with FirstGroup representatives at the Senedd to discuss the future of Swansea’s bus services, including plans for electrification, franchising, and the impact of recent strikes.
The meeting comes as First Bus rolls out a £350 million national investment to electrify its fleet, converting diesel vehicles to electric and introducing new carbon‑neutral buses across Wales.
“Reliable, timely public transport”
Speaking after the meeting, Mr Giffard said he welcomed First Bus’s commitment to improving services:
“It was great to meet some of the team from First Bus to talk through their commitment to helping provide a timely, reliable public transport system, as well as their huge investment into a fleet of brand‑new carbon‑neutral buses across Wales, many of which will be coming to Swansea soon.
“I sincerely hope the Welsh Government engage with First Bus to enable them to help build the services people across Swansea deserve.”
He also raised concerns about the impact of the default 20mph speed limit on bus routes and journey times, calling for greater investment in roads and junction upgrades along the M4 at Ynysforgan and Penllergaer.
On social media, Mr Giffard shared a light‑hearted post after trying out one of the new buses himself:
“Good to get behind the wheel of a new First bus coming to a Swansea street near you very soon. But don’t worry, hopefully the drivers won’t still be on strike by then, so I won’t be the one behind the wheel!”
First Cymru: Net zero ambitions
Rob Pymm, Commercial Director for First Bus in Cymru, said the company was pleased to hear Mr Giffard’s support for their net zero ambitions.
“We were pleased to meet Tom Giffard MS this week and hear he is supporting our moves to a net zero fleet with £350million invested so far nationally to electrify our depots and buses.
“The arrival of electric buses in Swansea will depend on franchise plans by Transport for Wales (TfW) and Welsh Government, and we’ll continue to work closely with TfW to lend our expertise in this area to help ensure our net‑zero ambitions arrive in the country. We already operate eight electric TrawsCymru buses on the growing T1 service as part of our partnership with TfW.”
Looking ahead
While the timeline for electric buses in Swansea will depend on Welsh Government franchising decisions, both First Cymru and Mr Giffard emphasised the importance of building a transport system that is affordable, reliable and sustainable.
Mr Giffard said he would continue to advocate for improvements and invited Swansea residents to share feedback on issues they want raised.

#Tehran, the capital of #Iran has one of the worst air quality record of all the major cities in the world.
But the city is starting to tackle the problem slowly, and today, 210 new electric busses were added to the fleet of city busses.
sadly, this will be a drop in the ocean as the 10 million city with some of the oldest cars in the world need much more than this to stop the catastrophic air pollution

Here's another example of an electric bus. This bus took us up a steep hill with several switchbacks in Taiwan. Also quiet and air conditioned. Public transit is a reliable way to cool off in Taiwan. #taiwan #jiufen #electricbus

We recently went for a ride on one of BC Transit's new electric buses in Victoria, BC. It was a quieter and air conditioned trip :) The first image is on the #22 route (Yates St) and the second is on the #28 route (Douglas St). #VictoriaBC #BCTransit #electricbus

This came through from Triodos Bank this morning.
Sadly only Scotland at the moment but hopefully will spread.
A fun trip on a vintage bus is a lovely experience but the hot diesel stench and bone-shaking are very unpleasant when taking a normal bus on an everyday.

I frequently talk against the rush of transitioning to electric battery-powered buses. The technology is just not there yet, and we risk making public transit worse and reduce actual bus service if we don't slow down.
This article based on a TTC report makes a good case as to why.
The TTC had announced they would no longer buy hybrid bus, now they are considering buying 200 because electric isn't ready.

Back home.
The bus journey to meet Sacha at the gym was uneventful - both buses were on time. I don't understand why, but the new Electric (battery) buses in Leicester seem much more reliable than the smelly diesel buses - and give a nicer ride.There had been a collision in the gym car park earlier, so part of the car park was closed which meant finding our car was a challenge.
We eat the petrol station meal deal at the allotment. Sacha pruned & trained one of the loganberry bushes, that I'd been ignoring, while I broke up clay lumps and raked the bed that I've been digging recently.
it was chilly but not too unpleasant. And, we got useful jobs done.

The new #BusRapidTransit took me from downtown to 51st St in FIFTEEN MINUTES.
Literally as fast as driving.
Holy hell.It was absolutely the right move to open these lines ASAP, even with long headways + diesel buses. “Done is better than perfect.” 🙌
Bonus: Today the 800 is running a #electricbus, and damn these things look & feel like the future. And they still smell like new-bus ✨ #Austin is that much more a serious city with #transit like this.
