Just seen this on the Stagecoach North East Twitter:


We are proud to support the North East’s Transport Decarbonisation Levelling Up Fund bid.
If successful, £19.5m in funding will boost #zerocarbon transport options for local people - both by investing in new electric buses ? and EV chargers ⚡ #decarbNE #sustainabletransport

I hope Newcastle doesn't get them all. 

Also 19.5 Million would only get you around 36 buses, if an electric bus is £500,000. So 12 for each major operator
