Nobina expands in the Turku region with new contract for city transport
Nobina has been awarded a new contract by Föli to operate and develop city transport services in Turku. The agreement marks an important step in the region’s transition toward more sustainable public transport, with 23 fully electric tri‑axle buses – entering service when the contract begins in July 2027.
Running over eight years, with an option for an additional two years, the contract strengthens Nobina’s presence in southwest Finland. The modern, high-capacity and emission-free buses will contribute to quieter streets, cleaner air, and an improved travel experience for passengers.
"We are very pleased with Föli’s continued trust. This contract allows us to further develop public transport in Turku together with our client and the region’s passengers. Advancing electrification is essential for creating sustainable, safe, and attractive journeys — both today and for future generations", says Topi Simola, Managing Director, Nobina Finland.
The new buses are designed to meet the high-capacity requirements of city operations and will enhance comfort while significantly reducing noise levels. With this contract, Nobina takes another meaningful step in supporting the region’s climate ambitions while keeping the needs and daily lives of travellers at the centre.
