Merced City School District has completed an electric vehicle charger infrastructure project to support its transition to a zero-emission school bus fleet.
Under the leadership of Dr. Doug Williams, director of transportation, the district developed and implemented a plan over the past two years to electrify its fleet. The project includes a new bus yard equipped with EV chargers for 10 Blue Bird Type D electric buses, with additional capacity for future expansion.
The project was supported by the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District and funding from the State of California.
Merced City School District collaborated with A-Z Bus Sales, including its grants, school bus, training, and electric vehicle infrastructure teams.
“Helping Merced City School District electrify its fleet reflects our mission to support zero-emission transportation,” said John Landherr, CEO and chairman of A-Z Bus Sales.
