To help achieve the city and State's climate goals, Transfort has a target of converting its fleet to low and no emission vehicles. Transfort applied for and received $3.52M in funds from the USDOT Low or No Emission Vehicle Grant program to purchase new electric buses. The buses are battery powered and do not rely on diesel or natural gas engines. Transfort is the only Colorado agency to receive the funds.
