Trolleybuses are popular in Europe and are making a comeback in other parts of the world.

Advances in battery technology mean they can be released from the constraints of the wires for parts of the route removing one of their biggest issues. Cheaper infrastructure than trams or light rail, cheaper operating costs and less pollution than regular diesel powered Bus Rapid Transit.
