| Project Detail |
The Project will, above all, substitute modern battery electric buses (BEBs) for existing diesel-fueled or gas-fueled
buses in five small and/or medium cities in Liaoning, including Fuxin City, Hu’ludao City, Jinzhou City, Panjin City, and
Yingkou City (together Project cities). Also, public transport management systems in the Project cities will be upgraded
using smart digitalized platforms. The Project will demonstrate that: (i) BEBs are viable options to zero-emission public
transport systems in Liaoning; and (ii) smart public transport management system can enhance the efficiency of public
transport, provide better services, and attract more passengers to use public transport in the Project cities.
Key Project activities include:
(i) procurement of about 1,285 BEBs.
(ii) construction of about 286 new bus chargers.
(iii) installation of smart public transport management systems and supporting software and equipment
in the Project cities, which include automated fare collection terminals, automatic vehicle location
system, real-time driving assistance and safety systems, passenger information systems, depot
management system, and bus stop management system, etc.
(iv) construction of the Liaodong Bay Intercity Bus Service Center in Panjin,
(v) construction of the New Green Bus Maintenance Workshop in Fuxin, and
(vi) technical support and capacity building to the five bus companies on BEBs and smart public transport
technology.
To improve the quality and efficiency of public transport service and urban environment by replacing existing fossilfueled buses with BEBs and applying digital technology to public transport management systems in five small and
medium-sized cities of Liaoning Province. |
