More state of the art buses coming to Liverpool's roads this month

The roll out of the region’s new hydrogen powered buses is set to continue over the coming weeks with more of the vehicles gradually beginning passenger services.

The first of the state of the art double-deckers started passenger services last week on Monday May 15. This followed weeks of testing and driver training on Merseyside roads.

Metro Mayor Steve Rotheram, who sees their introduction as a key part of delivering a transport revolution for Merseyside, said the beginning of passenger services was a major step forward for the city region. The 20 strong fleet purchased by the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority are currently undergoing a phased introduction with more of the vehicles said to be on the streets in the "coming weeks."
