Boris Buses: London’s Mayor Boris Johnson will leave office this year but is busy buying more of his “signature” hybrid buses, ordering another 195 from Wrightbus. This will eventually bring the total number of orders to a 1,000 of which 600 are already in service. Potential successors to the mayor already said they would not continue to aim for 2,000 hybrid buses by 2020. Instead, they would seek full electrification or “true” hybrids if not suspending infrastructure spending altogether.
