The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) is providing a sovereign loan of up to €25 million to Armenia to help improve Yerevan’s bus network. In particular, the city is looking to purchase new, modern 12-metre low-floor compressed natural gas (CNG) buses. Proposals may be submitted by June 12, Marutyan said. The project is part of a broader programme aiming to assist the city to reform its public transport system by financing the renewal of its bus fleet in anticipation of the restructuring of the bus network.
