WDE2803 has entered service. I wonder if the 297 batch will move onto the 142 so its BDEs gets moved on elsewhere when the 113 BDEs arrive.

Isn’t route 143 supposed to have electric vehicles from today henceforth?

Isn’t route 143 supposed to have electric vehicles from today henceforth? No, contract renewal was today. New EVs will be introduced at a later date as is common with the majority of EV conversions. Very few make it the first day.

These are going to be in the Vision Zero spec, right? The photo of ES52 on this forum showed a pair of Metroline Electroliners in-build with the older style front, which would suggest this batch is not zero vision spec.

I see, I thought the Vision Zero spec was the newest and only option for all future Electroliners as it was made like that for safety or something, just like how the Metrocity got a revamp too?

The old spec was probably ordered before vision zero spec became compulsory, and the contract was not subsequently revisited and amended. You make what you are contracted to.

For a couple of weeks, starting today, HT is concentrating on WDE type training, open to all, but focusing on Route 4 drivers. Company post.

LOTS might have made a mistake but it seems to suggest the tender renewal for the 17 is for mixed LT and Electric buses from July. I am going to assume this is wrong as the TfL tender award states existing New Routemasters.
Is there a plan for the BDE's?
