Nova Bus Partners with Metrolinx
Nova Bus has entered into an $80 million (Cdn,) contract with Metrolinx, which coordinates transit vehicle purchasing initiatives for 13 municipalities in Ontario. Through this agreement, the manufacturer will deliver up to 188 40-foot buses and 15 articulated buses to cities in Metrolinx member cities between 2015 and 2017.
Since vehicle specifications vary greatly from one city to another, the Metrolinx-Nova Bus agreement comprises various types of propulsion technologies such as clean diesel, diesel-electric hybrid, and compressed natural gas. The vehicles will be entirely assembled in Canada and will include a high level of Canadian content.
