NABI's streamlined bus style - the NABI BRT available with natural gas option
Southern California’s Foothill Transit has expanded its CNG fleet with stylish CNG-powered NABI 42-BRT buses, for service in key areas of the bustling San Gabriel and Pomona Valleys, a thriving suburban area east of Los Angeles. “We’re definitely excited about our fleet of 30 new NABI 42-footers,” commented Doran Barnes, Foothill Transit’s Executive Director in a Press Release. “These modern buses really drive Foothill Transit into the 21st century. They’re a remarkable departure from the ‘shoebox’ character of yesteryear’s buses.” Over 80% of the Foothill fleet now use CNG fuel.
Two years ago Foothill Transit inaugurated high-occupancy freeway service into downtown L.A. with NABI articulated BRT’s. The agency used the articulated buses’ dramatic styling to differentiate its new service…dubbed “Silver Streak”. And today, Foothill Transit’s new 42-foot BRT’s are using this same distinct, streamlined styling to differentiate service and lure riders on heavily traveled surface lines across the rapidly growing San Gabriel and Pomona Valleys.
