Auckland Transport (AT) has introduced a new fleet of 44 electric buses manufactured by BYD, Kiwi Bus Builders, and Alexander Dennis Limited to serve communities in West Auckland.
The new electric buses, which include 26 double-decker models, are operating on the WX1 Western Express route.
The WX1 route connects Westgate to Auckland’s city centre via Lincoln and Te Atatū bus interchanges. The electric buses will operate every 10 minutes, providing more capacity and an alternative to diesel-powered vehicles.
