奧斯陸目標成為首個擁有零排放公共交通系統的首都

奧斯陸有望成為世界上第一個擁有全電動公共交通系統的首都,目標是在2023年底實現這一願景,作為其到2030年成為世界上第一個完全零排放城市的目標的一部分。
The Vice-Mayor responsible for environment and transport, Sirin Stav, said the transport push entails replacing its diesel-fuelled buses with 450 electric ones under a 500 million crown ($47 million) program that will save the city money over the long term.
負責環境和交通的副市長Sirin Stav表示,在一項耗資5億克朗(4700 萬美元)的交通計劃下,推動用450輛電動巴士取代柴油巴士,從長遠來看,這將為該市節省資金。
"The maintenance is cheaper, it's also cheaper for the operators of the electric buses, so all in all, this is a win-win situation," said Vice-Mayor responsible for environment and transport, Sirin Stav.
奧斯陸副市長史達武說:「維護更便宜,電動巴士營運商也省錢,所以總而言之,這是一個雙贏的局面。」
