此為英文新聞報導我學校所在城鎮Blacksburg, VA的電動公車 https://www.blacksburg.gov/Home/Components/News/News/9536/ Blacksburg Transit Launches Electric Buses on Earth Day Post Date:04/21/2021 2:39 PM 黑堡於地球日啟用電動公車 Blacksburg Transit will launch five battery electric buses in honor of Earth Day on Thursday April 22nd. The all electric buses, a first for the system, will replace five conventional diesel powered buses. BT is one of the first systems in the state to purchase them. Blacksburg Transit(BT)為了慶祝世界地球日，將在4月22日星期四啟用五輛電動公車。全系統第一批的電動公車將會取代五輛既有柴油公車，BT是這州(維吉尼亞州)最早引進電動公車的公車業者之一。 According to BT Director Tom Fox, “These buses are just the beginning of what will someday be a fully electric fleet of buses. Our goal is that in three to four years, half of the entire fleet will be electric and we will be 100% electric in about ten years depending on funding. This is a large step towards reducing our carbon footprint while also reducing our dependence on fossil fuels.” BT執行長Tom Fox表示，「這些公車是未來全面採用電動公車的開端，目標預計三四年內會有一半數量的公車是電動公車，而大概十年內所有公車都會是電動的。這是邁進減少碳排放與對石油依賴的一大步。」 On the first day of service, the buses will operate on the Corporate Research Center (CRC) and Progress St (PRO) routes. All buses servicing these two routes on Thursday will be electric. 電動公車在第一天會投入CRC和PRO兩條路線整天的服務，兩條路線均由電動公車行駛。 BT was one of three transit agencies awarded funding for electric buses in 2019 from the Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation and the Department of Environmental Quality. Additional financial support for the purchase of the vehicles received from the Town of Blacksburg and Virginia Tech further supports their ongoing climate protection initiatives. BT是三個獲得Virginia大眾運輸部門電動公車補助的三間運輸部門之一，另外也有黑堡鎮公所和Virginia Tech的補助來一起保護地球氣候。(按：這句好怪...) Additional information regarding the electric buses can be found at www.ridebt.org.

(路邊等發車時請司機操作車門) 長得很像輕軌電車的車門這樣門邊可以多載幾個人不怕被旋轉門夾傷 ---- 順便介紹一下我們這裡BT的路線總共17條大部分路線半小時來回一趟班距15分鐘為主(covid前不少路線為10分鐘) 其中四條路線為單向環狀線並且互相搭配部分路段(不是完美反向循環) 採用雙節公車的路線共有四條包含三條環狀和另一條往返路線其他路線會採用35呎短軸車或是40呎長軸車同路線原則上不會混跑常態路線車隊大約50輛車吧還有一些輔助運輸小巴雙節車包含新的電動公車佔有14輛以後還會增加大一學生會住宿大二以上大多住校外公寓會利用公車通勤即使是開車也只能停外圍停車場再搭公車黑堡是典型的college town 也就是城鎮因應大學設立而生完全圍繞著大學鎮公所都會和學校互相配合兩者相輔相成傍晚在晚上介紹學校附近的公車 by傍晚 -- 　沒有魔術只有基礎　沒有魔力只有物理 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 45.3.82.48 (美國) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Bus/M.1619233437.A.DAC.html
