Description:
The City has an Alternative Fuel Vehicle policy that requires all new non-safety vehicles to run on alternative fuels. Union City has been in the process of replacing old diesel-powered UC Transit buses with CNG-powered buses since 2000. In 2011, the City approved six replacement CNG buses. When the new buses are delivered in December 2012, the active UC Transit fleet will be completely powered by CNG. The transition of fuel type is estimated to save 270 metric tons of CO2 per year.
