The council has set a target of becoming carbon neutral by 2030 – with other initiatives including exploring alternative fuels.
A Bedford Borough Council spokesperson said, “We have committed to ensure our new vehicles make a positive step to reducing our carbon footprint and achieving our ambitious objectives. As part of our efforts to address the climate emergency, we will continue to look at other opportunities to make our own operations more sustainable, while enabling other organisations in the Borough to do the same.”
