More gas buses will appear in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia

On the 28th of August it has been officially announced about the fact that government of Nizhny Novgorod region is planning to provide more than 85 million rubles on purchasing new public buses. These vehicles are using natural gas as the main fuel. Governor of the region Valery Shantsev has already signed resolution for providing necessary funds.

At the same time it was mentioned that Nizhny Novgorod will receive necessary funds only in case of financial cooperation. Region is ready to provide 350 thousand rubles for purchasing of every bus. In the whole the government is planning to buy 250 new vehicles. This information is mentioned in resolution that is available on the official website of Regional Administration.

It should be considered that transport that operates on natural gas makes it possible to decrease the level of air pollution. It means that such buses help to care about environment and make air much cleaner. This is rather important taking into account current situation with environment pollution.

Administration of Nizhny Novgorod has already discussed the necessity to renew all public transport in the city by 2018. The process has already been launched.
