Sonoma County purchases seven all-electric transit buses in continued shift toward zero-emission public transportation
The Board of Supervisors today approved the purchase of seven battery electric transit buses to replace natural gas-powered buses in the current fleet that have exceeded their 12-year minimum service life required by the Federal Transit Administration. The seven new buses are scheduled for delivery in November 2026 and will be deployed on Sonoma County Transit’s main intercity routes that operate between Monte Rio, Santa Rosa and Sonoma (Routes 20 and 30) and between Petaluma, Santa Rosa and Cloverdale (Routes 44/48 and 60).
