Zenob and McGill’s Electrify Greenock’s Bus Depot

Lodged by Stuart McMillan (Scottish National Party) Standard Motion 18 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament welcomes the news that Zenob is expanding its collaboration with McGill’s to deliver a new electric bus depot in Greenock and bring the transport operator’s total number of electric buses to 109; notes that, as well as electrifying the company’s local depot in Larkfield, work will be undertaken to grow McGill’s existing electric sites at Inchinnan and Johnstone; recognises that the announcement follows the award of funding from the Scottish Zero Emission Bus Challenge Fund to McGill’s for new electric buses and the infrastructure to support them; understands that, in the last 12 months, McGill’s reports delivering 7.5 million passenger journeys on zero-emission buses, totalling over three million vehicle miles; believes that McGill’s commitment to offering more environmentally-friendly public transport to customers will help Scotland meet its climate targets, and wishes Zenob and McGill’s all the best as they embark on this project.
