Detroit DOT Unveils First Buses in New Fleet
![](http://passengertransport.apta.com/aptapt/editor_images/Detroit%20DOT%20new%20buses.jpg)
Detroit DOT recently took delivery of the first seven buses in an 80-bus order from New Flyer comprising 70 40-foot vehicles and 10 60-foot articulated buses, which will replace older ones that have exceeded their useful lifespan. DDOT Director Dan Dirks explained that the buses became available in less than a year, compared to the usual two years or more for manufacture and delivery, through "piggybacking" on existing orders with other agencies.
