So like GNE could have them for 3 year before moving to Arriva for example or would the council have to have them stay with one company due to the deal passed over to the government for the funding.


That's if they actually get the funding... which I doubt as its the North East...

Is there any space for the charging infrastructure at those depots?

Edit:

Found a PDF with info on about the bid for the North East

Looking at the document, it looks as though they're planning on getting the BYD ADL Enviro400EVs, since I can't seem to see any other 10.9m EV deckers.

As for the single deckers, they'll probably stick with the Yutongs for fleet standardisation, with the 9m single deckers probably being Solo EVs
