Asport expects that the planning of this new phase of the scheme, which the entity he represents is facing, is meant to last until late February, whereas the program execution is planned to begin in March. “These conversions will be for free as well, but we are evaluating costs, because there are differences between gasoline and diesel procedures,” the official explained.
According to the EEC-GNV managing director, a large number of diesel powered-vehicles travels throughout Bolivia, many of which are operational in the city of Santa Cruz.
This new phase in the NGV conversion program, which will be focused on public transport vehicles operating on diesel, had been announced a month ago, along with the 2011 conversion program results.
