LOS ANGELES : LA28 on Monday said it has chosen Highland Electric Fleets as the official electric school bus provider for the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games, a partnership that will deploy 500 zero-emission buses to support transport operations.

Rather than acquiring new vehicles, LA28 plans to repurpose yellow electric school buses from local districts to move accredited stakeholders during the Games, an approach the organizers say will cut emissions and costs.

Highland will join the LA28 transport team to run what the partners described as a first-of-its-kind electric school bus program for the Games.

The company will oversee operations including daily logistics and charging, depot management and on-site technical support across venues throughout the event.
