MTA's 256 low floor articulated (60 ft) bus order + option order update |
|
Posted by Gold_12th on Thu Nov 27 21:22:04 2014 MTA expects to award the buses in June 2015. It's been delayed couple of times. RFP is coming out very soon.The reason: "Delay due to extended negotiations with vendors and an allowance for possible State review prior to award. Cost decrease reflects latest market conditions." MTA is budgeting $219.1 million now, instead of $245.5 million in previous budget. There is an option order on this contract for up to 275 articulated buses. MTA is budgeting $234.3 million in 2016, pending approval of MTA's 2015-2019 Capital Program. It is a potential split award if this order is delay again. |
