After relying on temporary buses for nearly three months, Airdrie Transit has welcomed its new fleet.

"We took delivery of five new buses and they are destined for our local transit service," said Transit Coordinator Chris MacIssacs.

The buses are replacing the former fleet, which retired late last year after being in service since 2010.

MacIssacs hopes that it won't be too long before the new buses will be out on Airdrie roads.

"It's a bit of a process to get the buses online for our service. Right now we're targeting early February to have all of the new buses into service."
