Requested Information:

I have noticed a few diesel buses running on route 2 recently. I wondered if this was intentional/desirable by the operator. If not, do you have reporting available to determine when diesels are running on this route, and take action when diesels are used instead of EVs? I thought this route was meant to be 100% EVs. 

I have access to the public data API for Metlink and have been pulling data from it for my own research/interest. I have attached a report showing trips running diesels since the beginning of the year (disclaimer: it might not be complete). I see 266 trips since the beginning of the year that have been diesels on route 2, of a total of 11,971 observed trips (about 2%).
