98 electric buses stuck in storage will be on the roads by early next year.
Last week, it was revealed the National Transport Authority had spent seven million euro storing a number of electric busses which weren’t in use due to a lack of charging facilities.
According to The Irish Examiner, the NTA has now told the Public Accounts Committee that the 53 Dublin buses will be operational before October, while the other 42, destined for Galway, should be in use by early next year.
It says new charging infrastructure in the Phibsborough Depot and Bus Éireann Galway will support the new additions.
