Battery powered busses are very expensive and baterries need replacement and maintenance. Trolley buses are a cheaper investment in the long term. So it's frustrating when new projects choose baterry buses instead of trolley buses. It always feels like corruption to me. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Nalivai@lemmy.world 1 point 9 months ago Trolley are better in a lot of cases, but not in all of the cases. permalink fedilink source parent
