Britain's first "poo bus", which runs on human and household waste
Britain's first ‘poo bus’ running on human and household waste goes into regular service later this month.
Powered by biomethane gas, the Bio-Bus will use waste from more than 32,000 households along its 15-mile route.
It will be operated in the Bristol area by bus company First West of England.
The company’s managing director James Freeman said: "Since its original unveiling last year the Bio-Bus has generated worldwide attention and so it's our great privilege to bring it to the city, to operate - quite rightly - on Service 2.”
Do you think this green, or rather brown, fuel concept is the way to go for public transport? Would you want to see the muck idea spread to London and Kent? Add your comments below.
