Torrance Transit will be introducing all-electric buses to its fleet in mid2022. These zero-emission buses will serve alongside alternative-fuel Compressed Natural Gas buses to provide public transportation service to Torrance and the South Bay community. Also included in this project are zero-emission, rubber wheel trolleys that will serve the community in areas where a full-sized bus may not be able to navigate, and zero-emission or hybrid electric non-revenue vehicles for security, supervision and service relief.
Over $20 Million in competitive grant funding has been awarded to Torrance Transit for the purchase of replacement and expansion buses, which are scheduled to arrive in mid-2022. Torrance Transit also received additional grant funding for the construction of a heavy-duty vehicle charging infrastructure, and the purchase of a solar-powered light duty charging station for smaller vehicles.
