Yeah, As part of going "Green", DDOT is testing a G.M. HYBRID Electric Bus today as part of its Scheduled activities today. If You see it around town give it a honk of support.

Anyone know what route it was running on or get any photos? Or better still, ride on it and can compare it to as regular workaholic DDOT New Look or RTS coach?

Yeah, Actually Philly, But its gone home to become part of SEPTA's fleet. But it did a nice job while it was here. And BTW it was identical to DDOT's regular newer coaches, just Electric.
