• USD 1014 million – total funds dedicated for low emission and zero emission transport up to 2020. USD 93 million – total value of the project on 130 electric buses with associated infrastructure, including 19 aerial chargers. Total funding for the next period is yet to be determined, but should be at least comparable, while most probably increased.

• Many of the above commitments do not necessarily require direct financial resources for delivery. The City has a dedicated sustainability professional to facilitate its progress in ZEVs and oversee collaborative efforts. As the appropriate vehicle types become available to transition the City’s fleet, the Department of Facilities, Parking, and Recreation will add these items to the annual budget request. © Getty images / gionnixxx
