Sustainable transit for students in Southwestern Ontario
Fast facts
Our $22.4 million investment towards 200 electric school buses will help students in London, Sarnia, Chatham-Kent, Woodstock and surrounding areas throughout Southwestern Ontario access cleaner transit options for school.
Our loan will help cover the higher upfront capital costs of ZEBs helping to accelerate the electrification of Langs Bus Lines fleet by 2026.
Following their electric bus pilot in 2017, Langs Bus Lines is the first in the region to begin converting a large portion of their fleet. Transitioning to an electric fleet is in line with their vision to drive clean and reduce students' exposure to school bus emissions.
Benefits of CIB involvement
Our Zero-Emission Buses Initiative assists transit agencies and school bus operators in transitioning their fleets to modern, environmentally friendly vehicles. The financing, in the form of direct loans, can cover a portion of the higher upfront capital cost of ZEBs compared to diesel buses. We enable our partners to modernize their bus fleets on an accelerated basis by taking advantage of our flexible financing options.
