Free bus service leads the way to greener Selangor

The free bus in Shah Alam makes a stop at the state secretariat building.

THE Selangor government’s Green Technology Action Plan 2015-2018 is well underway, led by its free bus service – now known as SMART Selangor Bus – that is primarily aimed at reducing cars on the road and reduce carbon emission by encouraging people to use public transportation.

Apart from this free service that uses electric buses, the plan to make the Selangor a green technology state includes using electric cars as official state vehicles, setting up electric charging stations, installing solar roofing systems for the Selangorku housing project, energy-efficient state government buildings and making Industrial Parks more green.
