RIVERSIDE, CA – Complete Coach Works (CCW), North America’s leading provider of transit bus and sustainable transportation solutions, is proud to announce the contract award for the midlife refurbishment of thirteen (13) Long Beach Transit (LBT) 2015 New Flyer Xcelsior, Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) 60-foot buses. This project is part of Long Beach Transit’s State of Good Repair Program, designed to maintain the safety, efficiency, and reliability of its fleet.
This recent award is built on a long-standing partner relationship between the two organizations. CCW previously performed a mid-life rehabilitation for 72 Gillig buses under a contract awarded in 2019. That successful project demonstrates CCW’s commitment to assisting LBT in their mission to deploy the most reliable and efficient fleet for their customers.
The bus rehabilitation contract includes both cosmetic and mechanical upgrades. The buses will be fitted with Cummins L9N CNG “Near Zero” engines, replacing the older Cummins ISL-G engines. These low-emission, fuel-efficient engines are part of LBT’s continued effort to provide a cleaner and more environmentally friendly transportation system for the City of Long Beach and its surrounding areas. Additionally, each bus will include new aluminum wheels, updated exterior lighting and mirrors, a refurbished driver’s seat, reupholstered passenger seats, and articulation joint service. Further enhancements include the recertification of each bus’s Amerex fire suppression system.
The buses will further receive an interior and exterior paint job, complete with new decals, providing a refreshed look that reflects Long Beach Transit’s commitment to high-quality service.
“As these vehicles reach their mid-life points, the cosmetic, mechanical, and electrical restoration work will return them to like-new condition,” said James Carson, Regional Sales Manager of Complete Coach Works. “CCW provides high-quality refurbishing services, and we take pride in seeing our work reflected in the Long Beach Transit fleet.”
LBT, the second largest public transit agency in Los Angeles County, serves approximately 17 million annual boardings. The completion of this project will ensure the fleet remains efficient and reliable for the residents and visitors of Long Beach.
James added, “This has been a joint effort to bring more value to the city. The refurbishment of these buses will allow Long Beach Transit to continue on its path toward providing a cleaner and more sustainable and reliable transportation system for its community.”
