'''Description''':<br />
<br />
More than 195 wheelchair accessible, air conditioned [natural] gas buses are now part of Brisbane City Council's fleet of about 700 buses.<br />
<br />

<br />
'''Project details'''<br><br />
Council is continuing to upgrade its bus fleet and will add an extra 60 gas buses to the fleet every year. <br />
<br />
Compared to most diesel buses, gas buses produce:<br />
* 99% less carbon monoxide<br />
* 82% less hydrocarbons<br />
* 94% less nitrogen oxide<br />
* 15% less carbon dioxide and greenhouse gases<br />
* 60% less noise <br />
<br />
As part of the green bus project, Council is switching its diesel buses to BP's 'ultra low sulphur diesel'. Environmental benefits of the new fuel include:<br />
* up to 60% less smoke<br />
* 90% less sulphur dioxide<br />
* 80% less air toxins including 'polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons', which have been linked to cancer<br />
* 20% less fine particles<br />
* 10% less nitrogen oxide<br />
* less exhaust odour and waste oil <br />
<br />
Council will also open a $4 million gas refuelling station at Virginia for buses using the Inner Northern Busway when it opens in February.<br />
