📋 Tender Overview
Description: Union City Transit: Fleet: Replace existing buses with zero-emission battery-electric buses. Union City Transit (UCT) has
fourteen (14) compressed natural gas (CNG) heavy-duty transit buses that have exceeded and/or are nearing end of useful
life and are eligible for replacement beginning in 2020, 2022, and 2024. The vehicles are requiring expensive repairs to
components that are at the end of useful life. Instead of constantly investing in new components, UCT is seeking funding to
migrate its fleet towards zero-emission vehicles. The fourteen (14) UCT vehicle stalls will require modification in order to
accommodate vehicle charging, this will be an expansion within the existing facilities without increasing the parking
footprint. This project will familiarize Union City Transit with electric vehicles in advance of future procurements to replace
its remaining four (4) CNG heavy-duty transit buses by 2028 and to ultimately convert the entire fixed-route and demandresponse fleets by 2030.
