New Low Emission Buses Introduced In Peterborough

A bus company operating in Peterborough has become even greener after introducing three double-decker buses which have been converted to reduce carbon emissions.

Delaine Buses, which has been operating in Peterborough since 1923, has converted the three bus engines to the latest Euro 5 engine specification.


Anthony Delaine-Smith, Managing Director of Delaine Buses, said: "When Delaine Buses Ltd introduced the first two buses into service they were the first Volvo buses in the country to meet the new Euro 4 engine standards.

"However, technology has now been developed that has allowed us to have these vehicles upgraded to the latest Euro 5 specification.

"This increases the reduction in carbon emissions from buses and helps to reduce the effects of global warming."
