Introduction of new trolleybuses in Salzburg

The Salzburg AG presented the first eight trolleybuses of their new fleet to the public on December 22, 2010. Until 2012, the entire new fleet of 25 state-of-the-art, barrier-free trolleybuses will be introduced. A special honour was the handing over of the city arms to the trolleybus fleet by the mayor of the City of Salzburg, Dr. Heinz Schaden, appreciating the high value of this CO2-emission-free transport mode for Salzburg. This is also reflected in the investment of additional 2,2 million EUR into the trolleybus system of Salzburg until 2015, demonstrating that the City of Salzburg patronises its electric public transport system and supports the trolleybus significantly also in the future.
