MILWAUKEE — REV Group announced Thursday that its Collins Bus subsidiary has been awarded a $26 million contract from the New York City Transit to provide 400 para-transit buses.

The buses will be built to NYCT’s custom specifications on a Ford F-350 chassis.

The bid for the NYCT opened in the Fall of 2016 and was awarded to Collins Bus this month. NYCT is a new customer for Collins Bus and the contract represents the single-largest commercial order in the history of the company.

The NYCT contract comes on the heels of Collins Bus’ 50th anniversary and the launch of the brand’s new low-floor bus product.
