“World’s first” double-decker buses to hit roads this summer

The “world’s first” hydrogen-powered double-decker buses will hit Aberdeen roads this summer.

First Aberdeen, part of the First Group, will run fifteen buses of the hydrogen buses on its most popular routes.

The double-deckers will arrive in Aberdeen during the spring for final tests before being fully operation in the summer.

Coasting approximately £500,000 per vehicle, the £8.3m project has been funded by Aberdeen City Council, the Scottish Government, and the European Union’s JIVE Project.
