(08 Feb 2018, 9:01 pm)Michael Wonder what buses will get them fitted in the NE?

(08 Feb 2018, 9:23 pm)Malarkey Quite surprised up here it hasn't been split more evenly between the councils with Sunderland and County Durham councils benefiting also rather than those in close proximity of Newcastle, Which makes me think this is specifically aimed at making Newcastle City Centre a Greener Zone for Buses.

It may be they didn't bid or their bids were unsuccessful.

In some areas up here, the funding amounts have fallen from last year.

Regarding the buses getting treated to the retrofitting, there is a column which outlines the vehicle numbers to be given the treatment in each LA area. A good detective may be able to work out the likely suspects
