Coast Mountain Bus Company 9543-9581, 9583-9590

Coast Mountain Bus Company 9543–9581, 9583–9590 are a set of 47 Nova Bus LFS units built in 2009. They are the first and only diesel-powered third generation LFS models in the fleet. They are fitted with Venturi exhaust tips to reduce exhaust heat emissions. Due to a fleet numbering error (further noted by the VIN serials), there is no unit 9582.

When delivered, the interior dome lights were all white. Over time, the light covers were changed to blue to reduce glare at night. Along with the other TransLink Nova Bus units in 2009, these are among the only buses to be delivered with a two-tone stop request chime, as opposed to a single tone typically used on other TransLink buses. However, some units have had their chimes replaced with a single tone due to routine wear and tear.

These units were one of the first orders delivered with the passenger voice-announcement and display systems by INIT pre-installed. CCTV cameras were installed in 2011. Compass Card readers were gradually installed starting in late 2012 and through 2013.

In June 2022, units 9563, 9564, 9567 and 9576 were fitted with seven interior bike racks for service on the 900 Bike Bus between Bridgeport Station and the Tsawwassen Ferry Terminal. Capable of carrying a total of nine bikes (seven inside and two outside), these buses also carry a special Bike Bus vinyl wrap livery and have a capacity of 18 seated passengers with no standees allowed. These are also the only buses in the fleet to be designated as not wheelchair accessible due to their designation as a Bike Bus.
