Can you believe it’s been one year since electro was introduced in South Yorkshire? Now with 23 electric buses – there’s no better time to hop on board and experience the difference for yourself. In the last year, our electro buses have collectively saved 1,518 tonnes of CO₂ emissions* in the last year, that’s equivalent to driving a petrol car 3.8 million miles. It also prevents 536 tons of waste going to landfill per year and gets recycles instead.

Whether you’re a regular rider or haven’t taken the bus for a while, electro offers a smarter, smoother way to travel in South Yorkshire.

Why ride electric?

Bringing a breath of fresh air to Rotherham, Barnsley and Doncaster, you’re helping to reduce carbon emissions with every journey and tackling climate change.

Just one electro bus saves 66 tonnes of CO2 emissions per year* compared to a standard bus. That’s the same as driving a petrol car 169,000 miles.

Sit back on comfy seats, stay cool or warm with air con and enjoy a quiet, peaceful ride.

It’s modern, so you won’t miss a thing with next-stop information and USB charging points on all seats.
