Description
- Activities
- Upgrade a standard 40 heavy-duty bus replacement to a battery electric bus with stbg funding. The base bus replacement of a 2006 orion VII is funded through a urbanized formula grant IA-2022-022 (5307 funding). Cyride anticipates the new battery electric bus will cost $1157896 total. The stbg funding will provide additional federal funding toward the increased cost. The vehicle to be replaced is currently 18 years of age well past the required 12 year useful life for a 40 HD bus.
- Expected outcomes
- The ames transit agency (CYRIDE) project will be the second time to procure battery electric buses within the ames iowa community. This grant will allow additional funding to further CYRIDE plans to operate a portion of its fleet with zero emission buses. CYRIDE plans to operate this bus on routes that operate near the CYRIDE facility during the day. This will easily allow the bus to be switched out with a diesel bus in case the batteries get low throughout the day.
- Intended beneficiaries
- The beneficiaries are the residents (66427 population) of the city of ames university students at iowa state university and visitors to the community.
- Subrecipient activities
- Cyride does not have subrecipients.
