The New Bus For London Has Arrived
Рет қаралды 157,079
Күн бұрынAs TfL have proudly boasted, this new bus has the most advanced and 'least polluting' diesel hybrid propulsion system yet devised. But, as the film shows, if reducing urban air pollution was really seen as being important there is a solution which could result in the NB4L being as 'clean' as Croydon's trams... which means no tailpipe pollution at all - something which would represent a real breath of fresh air.
re: CCTV surveillance cameras; "inspired" by events in Walthamstow as experienced by Austrian tourists photographing buses a few years ago and that when Croydon's Tramlink was built the enabling legislation explicitly prohibited ordinary people from using their own cameras at Tramlink stops, although it permitted the media and official CCTV cameras to be used.
===================================
Added May 2013:
Some comments have suggested that I am going too far with respect of air pollution and my suggestion that diesel hybrid buses are still 'too polluting', with (as technology stands today, May 2013) trolleybuses being the only true bus solution to air pollution.
In my defence, I suggest visiting these webpages....

Supreme court finds UK in breach of European air pollution rules

UK air pollution: why are we only now waking up to this public health crisis?
++++++++++++++++++
A couple of snips from this newspaper article:
The latest figures suggest 29,000 people die prematurely from it every year in Britain, twice as many as from road traffic, obesity and alcohol combined, and that air pollution is now second only to smoking as a cause of death.
In 2011, the House of Commons Environmental Audit Committee calculated that living in an air pollution hot spot could shave nine years off the lives of the most vulnerable people. It concluded that it cost Britain £6-19bn a year, or up to 17% of the total NHS budget, and that 15-20% more people died prematurely from it in cities with high levels of pollution than those in relatively cleaner ones.

Beautiful new old-fashioned buses! As to your eco-friendliness statements: trolleybuses need overhead wiring, which will have to be installed on walls within the city Limits. Considering the time needed to convince house owners to have their property "wired" and otherwise defaced, it's wiser to take a look at other technologies. There are plans to charge trams' batteries while they halt at a stop, instead of using constant energy from overhead catenary. Could work for buses, too!

Many other cities have trams, but some, like Lyon and St Etienne have both trams and trolleybuses! Marseilles and Grenoble are two cities which used to have trolleybuses but nowadays only have trams. France is noted (and envied) for the number of conurbations which have tram systems. Most of these are new tramway ssytems which have opened in the past 25 (or so) years.

yes its true that I very much talk about air pollution. Thats because I passionately believe that TfL could and should be doing more to reduce the pollution, and with 7000+ diesel buses under their control so reducing the pollution these emit in to our streets is directly under their control. What you did not know is that I have been involved in campaigning (by letter) with TfL advocating trolleybuses. So I agree I have used this film as part of that campaign.

@citytransportinfo Those buses were built back in 1998, they were converted to diesel-electric hybrids when Vancouver became privatised under TransLink. Vancouver didn't get any new trolleys until 2006. BC Transit however had 20 new hydrogen buses built in 2009 and they're still running in the smaller settlement of Whistler.

yes, Geneva, Vienna and several other cities are experimenting with fast charging bus batteries at bus stops. Shanghai uses it with capacitor buses. One problem is that the batteries do not last long enough (few years) whilst capacitors can not hold enough charge for more than a few miles, at best. New York stopped buying hybrids when it realised the short longetivity & cost of fresh batteries. Trolley technology still remains the only viable solution to air pollution sourced from large buses

Bus route 24 will be fully converted on 22nd June. At present there are only a few on bus route 38. There is more info on london (hyphen) railfan (dot) info As for the risk you mentioned, this applies to most modern double deck buses and after what happened in Croydon a few years ago I now refuse to sit in the upstairs front seats. OK, it was a rare event, but the risk remains - and I do not want to go flying out the window head first to land on the street below, on my head, dead.

@citytransportinfo Running costs have to be taken into consideration. While it does not eliminate pollution completely it still burns less diesel making it more fuel-efficient and hence cheaper to operate per mile (and more incentive for operators to use it). This Borismaster is already costing quite a bit, if they spent any more on making it fully electric the project would have well be dead in the water already.

@HitchinTrains I'm not sure about the twin stairways although its not a new idea as , double deckers in cities such as Berlin have twin stairways, as did the Leyland TTL demonstrator of 1935. The TTL was of an innovative low floor design with a floor height of just 14 inches (about 35cm) as well as twin doorways (front / open rear). In many ways it could be the best historic bus that never got built.

Currently buses contribute 15% to pollution in London.By 2020 busess manufactured before 2014 will be not good enough.Boris Johnson is lowering limits for vehicles which will hit mostly private cars users.Only in Jan 2015 Oxford Street exceeded limits for whole month in first 4 days if i am not mistaken.On main part of Oxford Street only buses and taxis( mainly diesel) are allowed so i think i it time to reduce buses in this area by 50%.

Just thinking, the issue of 'pollution', whilst an issue is sometimes misinterpreted somewhat. Diesel/Electric hybrids are not immensely polluting and 'switch' between the two systems. Furthermore, more diesel engine systems are fitted with Ad - Blue or AGR systems, which converted much of the more noxious emissions into less polluting ones by used either a urea - based additive (Ad - Blue) or a catalytic conversion system to convert the more polluting agents into water and nitrogen (non - polluting). The biggest problem with older vehicles, and non bio - diesels etc was the particulates they produced, like the PM10 particles which were emitted, they caused serious issues for air quality and health. With massive improvements in engine technology and fuel development, newer vehicles have greater reduced emissions which are less noxious. Hybrid vehicles have been highly incentivised, rightly so, and the advantages are there to be seen. On the issue of trams, ok, electric.........but the power has to be generated elsewhere, same with Tube trains, where generating stations were/still are required...........so on the issue of environmental quality..............somewhat at variance here.

victor furay Are you aware of the London air pollution study which found that despite representing just 10% of the traffic flow diesel buses emitted 66% of the worst kinds of pollution? Also, why do Londoners allow themselves to be fobbed off with something that is "less dirty" when well proven technology exists for us to have something that is as clean as London's many electric trains and Croydon's trams? www.wandsworth.gov.uk/news/article/10992/joint_campaign_for_putney_green_bus_zone trl.co.uk/reports-publications/trl-reports/report/?reportid=6739

Yes, but do they specify which type of diesel vehicles??? Perhaps, not. Yes older diesel engines, I concede are damaging, but the modern diesels and diesel/electric hybrids are not of that mould. Why have manufacturers like Volvo/Scania/MAN and others ploughed millions into such technology.......to become compliant and they have. The LEZ makes it difficult to operate non - compliant vehicles. The argument against such technology does not stack - up. Back in the early 90's the SEIPH compile reports which stated that particulates from diesel were a major issue, PM10 particles......modern engines don't have that problem......additionally, additives and catalytic conversion systems, have almost got rid of the NOx emissions. Like many people, I would favour system of non - damaging public transport...........trains, tube and trams use electricity produced by generating stations, some of these plants are far from 'green' technology. Road transport is more flexible and adaptable than trains and trams........not having a go.......but there are flaws in every argument and there can never be a total panacea for all ills.

@SaxonRau actually thieves can be stupid enough to try to nick live electric cables - even ones electrified at 25,000v on the railways! buses which are flexible enough to be re-routed overnight are flexible enough to be 'here today / gone tomorrow', leaving passengers in the lurch. With trolleybuses the wiring creates a sense of permamence which gives passengers confidence that they can plan where they live & work around a transport which will not be re-routed at a whim.

And many other cities decieded against that. And remove their trolleybusses. With modern catalisators the exaust problem is very little. The point is: You get additional infrastructure to maintain. And you get double the wires for the electricity. A Tram uses the rails as part of the grid. Actually you marry the disadvanteges of a tram and a bus; not the advantages. Only for Hill Climbing capacity the Bus is a good solution.

Soon ALL transports will hover. Once humankind can be guaranteed to not use it for war, we will be able to start using all sorts of technologies - including new non polluting energy systems and anti-gravity technologies. Then trams and buses and trains will merge into something new. When depend on us humans... decade, two decades? At present such technoogies are too dangerous, because there are still too many people who will only think to use them for wage war.
