“We are actually going to be using it quite a bit for the rollout for our draft route, but we are going to be putting it in service today, so you will see it out and about,” said Green Bay Metro Transit Director Patty Kiewiz. “It will be focusing on the downtown to Titletown route for the draft.”
Officials say an additional five electric buses are expected to join Green Bay’s transit fleet in the coming years.
