Falkirk Council will spend £2 million on new electrified vehicles for its fleet this year in a bid to meet its climate emergency targets.
Members of Falkirk Council executive approved the spending at a meeting on Tuesday, when members heard the money would pay for around 38 vehicles and reduce carbon emissions by more than 1,000 tonnes every year.
The budget had already been approved for future spending in 2025/26 but the director of Place Services, Malcolm Bennie, asked councillors for permission to accelerate things.
