Expansion of Scottish Green Bus Fund
Colin Howden, Director of Transform Scotland, said:
"We understand that applications to the Scottish Green Bus Fund exceeded the £3.4 million originally available for this fund. So it is welcome that the Scottish Government has expanded the scale of the funds by an extra £1 million.
"Of course, given the size of the Scottish bus fleet, it is going to take further incentives to ensure that the rest of the fleet also moves to low emission vehicles."
