Teesside Park Supports Launch of Stagecoach’s All-Electric Bus Fleet

Teesside Park was proud to support the launch of Stagecoach’s brand-new all-electric bus fleet—now operating across the Tees Valley as part of the government-backed Zero Emission Bus Regional Area (ZEBRA) programme.

The new fleet of 67 zero-emission buses, operated from the North East’s first fully electric depot in Stockton-on-Tees, marks a major step towards delivering cleaner, quieter and more sustainable public transport for the region. Several of these services connect directly to Teesside Park, making it easier than ever for visitors from areas such as Billingham, Norton and Hartlepool to travel sustainably.

To help raise awareness and celebrate the launch, Stagecoach hosted a family fun day at Teesside Park featuring free activities and giveaways, welcoming local visitors to learn more about the benefits of electric bus travel.

As part of the celebrations, Teesside Park worked with Stagecoach and the Tees Valley Combined Authority (TVCA) to wrap one of the new electric buses in zebra-themed artwork designed by local schoolchildren—bringing a fun, creative touch to the fleet and highlighting the region’s commitment to greener travel.

Teesside Park was delighted to partner with Stagecoach on this initiative and promote more sustainable transport options for the community.
