Citibus one year ago began using more energy efficient buses in an effort to save the city some money.
KMAC 28 is reporting that the projected savings of $40,000 a year were incorrect…The new busses have saved over $75,000 over the past year.
Officials say they are taking advantage of these savings by keeping rates the same, using a lower budget, and having the buses run longer routs.
They also plan to purchase two more buses totaling $1 million using federal grants.
