I don't believe the MTA plans a definite purchase of DesignLine buses at the present time.But that's what we're talking about. I just posted an article. I don't think DesignLine would give the MTA 30 buses for free to test. I assumed the MTA would be buying these 30 buses. Did I assume wrong? The article states: "Thirty futuristic-looking 40-foot buses will roll out on local routes in Manhattan beginning this September if the MTA board approves a $50 million-plus contract for a two-phase pilot project next week." $50 million sounds like we're buying them... |
