First Manchester Trials Fully Electric Bus
First Manchester is trialling a fully electric bus on the Oldham network. We have partnered with local manufacturers, Mellor for the demonstration bus. They will be providing their Sigma 10 single-decker model for the trial.
This is the first time our Manchester customers will have had the opportunity to travel with us on a zero emission bus, so make sure you don’t miss it.
You will be able to find this bus on the 57 and 425 service from the 15th to the 26th of March.
We are hopeful this trial will be the first step in preparing for the full electrification of our Wallshaw Street depot in the future. We look forward to gaining valuable feedback on your experience of this trial and we hope the local area welcomes the benefits of zero emission travel.
