David Robinson made this Official Information request to Wellington Regional Council
The request was successful.
From: David Robinson
Dear Wellington Regional Council,
1. Could you please provide with any information you hold of the number of seat kilometres per day the trolley bus fleet was doing before their removal? Or any information you hold which could be used to calculate the number of seat kilometres per day the trolley bus fleet were doing.
2. Can you please provide with any information you hold about the projected seat kilometres per day of electric buses as per their roll out plan? Or any information you hold which could be used to calculate the number of seat kilometres per day of the electric buses as they are procured.
3. Any information you hold which indicates when Wellington will have the same number of electric bus provided seat kilometres per day with the new electric buses as Wellington did before the trolley bus fleet removal.
Yours faithfully,
David Robinson

@Luke Seat kilometres, is a measure of how many seats are available e.g. a 50 person bus doing 100km a day would offer 5000 seat kilometres per day. It shows how many seats were available and allows the comparison of buses of difference sizes e.g the Trolley Buses and the EV Double Decker buses. The double deckers take more passengers, so is seat kilometres is a fairer comparison than number of electric buses Vs number of trolley buses.
