Specification including branding and livery for your new zero-emission and existing buses

Blackpool Borough Council did not have the information requested.

Dear Blackpool Borough Council,

As part of your Zero-Emission Bus Regional Areas (ZEBRA) funding by the Government to purchase new zero-emission buses.

Can you publish your bus specification including branding and livery guidelines for your new-zero emission buses and existing buses please?

Why do you require new buses to have single doors rather than dual doors, which London Buses already have to help speed up loading and unloading times at bus stops?

Yours faithfully,

Stuart Nelson

FOI, Blackpool Borough Council
