Albuquerque transit system plans to acuire electric buses

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) – Albuquerque’s transit system plans to start using electric buses.
A planned announcement Wednesday by Mayor Richard Berry of selection of buses that will be used follows a competitive bidding process.
Berry told the Albuquerque Journal that the planned purchases of 60-foot-long electric buses will give the city’s transit system a chance to earn a top environmental rating and save the city money.
Officials say the 18 buses would cost $24 million. That&rs
