Translink Metro is currently taking delivery of 23 Eclipse Gemini 3-bodied Volvo B5TL double-deckers for service in Belfast, supplied by Wrightbus (02825 641212).
They are 10.6m buses that have space for 90 passengers and all include an 11-camera CCTV system and an internal PA.
Additionally, they also have Wrightbus’ recently-unveiled glazed upper deck A-pillars and a low bridge warning system.
Says General Manager, Engineering Ian Campbell: “This new fleet is more efficient and more environmentally friendly, with much lower emissions.
“Both are good news for Belfast, helping to improve the overall air quality and providing a healthier environment for all. This fleet enhancement is part of our ongoing developments as we transform public transport into the first choice.”
