Canada / USA - North American transit bus manufacturer, Nova Bus Corporation, part of the Volvo Group, has confirmed Chicago Transit Board approval for the purchase of up to 600, 40-foot clean-diesel buses.

The new 40-foot LFS buses will be similar to those added to the CTA fleet in 2018 but offer a host of features to improve the customer experience and promote safety, including improvements to the wheelchair ramps at the front door, a larger surface area and a reduced slope, making it easier for wheelchairs to use.
