The Creston Valley Transit System has replaced its entire fleet of diesel-powered busses with four light-duty, gasoline-driven buses.

According to BC Transit, the new 26-foot light-duty ARBOC Spirit of Freedom buses can carry up to 21 passengers and provide flexibility for up to two mobility aids.

“Each new bus is equipped with a white LED destination sign, modern vinyl seating, quiet gasoline engine, increased interior lighting, and a rear route number,” said BC Transit. “These features will improve the safety, cleanliness and customer experience for conventional and paratransit service.”

The buses also come equipped with a temporary vinyl panel designed to protect the health of drivers and passengers from the threat of COVID-19.
