The city of Tucson and Sun Van introduce 35 new Sun Van vehicles, which will replace aging vehicles and improve the overall quality of Sun Van’s fleet.
All vehicles are now in service, they were received at the end of June, decreasing the average age of the fleet from 2.47 years to 2.1 years.
Purchased with funding from the Federal Transportation Administration (FTA) and the city of Tucson, Sun Van received 35 cut-away vehicles built by Glaval at a cost of $90,000 per vehicle.
“With the addition of 35 new vehicles we will be able to enhance our service and outreach into the community,” said Kate Riley, general manager of Sun Van.
