A £2.38m project to put 10 new electric buses on Coventry’s roads has been backed with new funding.
Image source, GettyCoventry City Council, external has been awarded £237,000 from The West Midlands Combined Authority towards its low emissions bus scheme.
The grant will help support a joint project between the council and National Express to buy 10 new electric buses for the city (generic image above).
Funding will also contribute to installing charging points at Coventry’s bus depot, as well as solar panels to generate the electricity for the charging points.
Funding is only 10% of the full cost, with the remaining balance coming from a bid made to the government’s Office for Low Emission Vehicles, with a decision expected this month or December.
The well-known Coventry businessman Harry Shaw has died aged 87, his family said.
He set up one of the city's most popular coach holiday firms in 1964, which is still running in the city.
He first began trading as a milkman in 1951, bringing in one of the first milk vending machines into the UK.
His son Robert said at its height the company was taking more than 100 coaches every week to UK resorts on its Saturday seaside service.
"It's a lovely thought that he touched so many people's lives, and people from all walks of life. It's incredible the effect that my dad's had on people," he said.
Birmingham is one of six cities to get faster 5G mobile networks under plans revealed by EE, following a trial.
The move could see users in Birmingham, London, Cardiff, Edinburgh, Belfast and Manchester get data at speeds faster than 10 gigabits per second by mid-2019.
By the end of next year, another 10 cities should also get access, including Coventry. But EE said users would "pay a little more".
Image source, GettyOther UK networks are now trialling 5G to accelerate their rollout next year.
As part of a separate project to combat low broadband speeds in rural areas, 5G will also be trialled in parts of Shropshire and Somerset.
Earlier this year we saw a huge response from people across the West Midlands who had inadequate mobile phone coverage - in some cases even unable to send texts or make a call in parts of big towns.
Are you looking forward to 5G? Let us know what you think.
