From the NE Transit MBTA inventory page:

Additional New Buses

The MBTA has requested bids for 325 additional 40-foot low-floor buses, consisting of 175 CNG buses and 150 hybrid buses. Bids are due 01/25/2015. These buses will replace the remaining RTS buses, the 6000-series New Flyers, and a large amount of the NABI fleet. Deliveries are anticipated to take place in 2016-2017 once a contract is awarded.

The proposed contract also includes options for 200 additional buses (100 hybrid and 100 CNG) that could be exercised for up to five years from the awarding of contract through 2020. Exercising this option would allow for replacement of any remaining NABI buses and most of the 40-foot Neoplan diesel fleet between 2018-2020..

This is a low-bid procurement; the lowest qualified bid which meets the specifications will be awarded the contract.
