Arriva Low Emission Vehicles

RE: Arriva Low Emission Vehicles
As the 14 and 18 are due to be converted to double deck operation in the near future it is certainly very possible that hybrid double deckers could be ordered for those routes. The 79 is a surprise however an order for that route could displace the Geminis onto other routes (particularly the 80) at Speke that would benefit from the extra capacity they would provide. If the bid is successful then I personally would like to see the Enviro400 Hybrid ordered. Really glad to see that more gas buses are being proposed for Runcorn as well

I'm pleasantly surprised by the proposal for fully electric single deckers on the 26/27 circulars too - it'll be interesting to see what they could be. Nevertheless I think it's great to see that Merseytravel and Arriva have taken an active interest in introducing more environmentally friendly buses in the North West
