U.S. Sens. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) and Alex Padilla (D-CA) announced Friday that 17 California transit agencies will receive more than $236 million in U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) grants for transitioning to zero-emission buses.
The funding, provided through USDOT’s Buses and Bus Facilities Program and Low or No Emission Vehicle (Low-No) Program, will help the agencies purchase and lease new, cleaner vehicles, as well as to renovate and/or construct the infrastructure needed to implement the zero-transmission vehicles.
