Hong Kong (2)

A new bus service, the Citybus “green” series, was started on 24 January 2005 by the Transport Department of Hong Kong. It consists of eight right-hand-drive double-deckers procured from Spain, with a distinctive green livery based on that of the larger Citybus fleet. The buses are known as “Hong Kong buses” among the locals. Transportation in Hong Kong is provided largely by subsidized franchised bus services owned by private operators, with franchised bus operators accounting for about 90% of the total passenger transport capacity. Citybus is one of the largest franchised bus operators in Hong Kong. Public
