Go-Ahead Diesel Bus (learn more comments) #tfl (learn more in comments)

Go-Ahead London is a major operator in the city's bus network, and while they are moving towards a greener fleet, they still operate a number of diesel buses. Here's what you need to know about their current status:

- **Fleet Transition**: Go-Ahead London is part of the city's broader initiative to transition to zero-emission buses. They have committed to converting their entire fleet of over 3,200 vehicles to zero-emission by 2035²⁴.
- **Current Fleet**: As of early 2023, Go-Ahead London operated a total of 153 bus routes mainly in South and Central London, with a mix of diesel, hybrid, and electric buses².
- **Zero-Emission Progress**: More than 500 of these buses are zero-emission, and Go-Ahead is fully on board with the Mayor of London's aim to convert the capital’s bus fleet by 2030³.
- **Innovations**: They are also involved in testing new technologies, such as the pantograph system for rapid, wireless bus charging, which is part of the transformation to a zero-emission bus fleet¹.

Go-Ahead London's efforts are a significant part of London's journey to achieve net zero emissions by 2030, and their diesel bus fleet is expected to decrease as more electric and hydrogen buses are introduced into service.
