Auckland Transport unveils fleet of electric buses for new AirportLink service

Auckland Transport unveiled a fleet of electric buses for the new Airport Link service between Manukau and the Auckland International Airport, on Wednesday January 20th, Stuff reported. Auckland Mayor Phil Goff said the new Airport Link was an important first for south Auckland. “This is the launch of a new, entirely electric bus service between Manukau and the airport,” he said. “What we’re determined to do is tackle the challenge of climate change. Here in Tamaki Makaurau, 40 per cent of our carbon emissions come from our transport fleet and much of that is due to private vehicles.”
