A total of 45 new buses with an aggregate cost of $4.5 million have been purchased for Armenia's second largest city, Vanadzor. This was announced by the Governor of Lori Province, Aren Mkrtchyan, who is currently in China's Hubei Province coordinating the delivery process. According to him, the buses will be dispatched to Armenia in three days.
The new vehicles are intended to modernize the municipal bus fleet. They will replace the outdated “GAZelle” minibuses that have been used for many years to carry passengers and serve urban routes.
The cost of the entire batch averages $100,000 per bus. The delivery of 45 vehicles is expected to upgrade a significant portion of Vanadzor's public transit system.
