Brighton getting 20 hydrogen buses was not something I saw coming
The TfL part is £54,857 per bus (excluding the infrastructure part), clearly a contribution as that is a lot less than the rumoured approx £200k extra for electric buses
Bit early to speculate on routes, but 94 seems likely to be one of them
