On the morning of February 3rd two new electric buses from the Czech producer SOR left on their regular BB1 and BB2 lines connecting the multifunctional BB Centrum complex with the Budějovická metro station on the C line in Prague 4. They are the first electric buses to be deployed in regular operations in Prague mass transit that passengers can use free of charge. Representatives of the development and investment company PASSERINVEST GROUP, the ČEZ group and the ARRIVA transportation company ceremoniously launched the electric buses and put them into operation as part of a joint project aimed at decreasing the burden on the environment, primarily in cities. In addition to being able to travel free of charge, the passengers also appreciated other benefits, including the less noise produced by the electric buses and the increased number of connections.
