After the big turbo-diesels of the 220 ACTION buses at the Tuggeranong depot are stilled each weekday, their engines have collectively consumed an average 16,000 litres of fuel.
As the ACT's biggest bus depot, all this rolling around the suburbs picking up and dropping off passengers adds up to a 12-month diesel consumption at the single southern site of 4.68 million litres, or a little under half the 10.87 million litres of diesel the entire Canberra bus fleet burned through in 2021-22.
