Heavy EV Buses are bad for roads say Highway Superintendents who gathered in Albany to voice concern.
Assemblyman Matt Simpson joined a bipartisan group of state legislators and highway superintendents last week to, in part, highlight the burdens imposed by the state’s All-Electric School Bus Mandate under the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act. Preliminary data indicates that heavier electric school buses reduce road life by about 20% and increase maintenance costs. Assemblyman Simpson said, “we support cleaner transportation, but the state must step up with real resources to prevent devastating burdens on our towns and villages.”
