The Yutong City Master is a 2011 model of low-floor double-decker bus that was first designed for JSP Skopje, the public company which has operated bus routes in Skopje since 1948. The bus design is in a “retro” style, similar to London’s AEC Routemaster. A total of 217 have entered service.

In 2010, the government of the Republic of Macedonia ordered 202 double-decker buses from the Chinese manufacturer Yutong, two of which were open top buses with removable roofs to be used by tourists (15 more buses like these were ordered in late 2011) and the remaining 200 as city buses for the capital city of Skopje.

The first open-top buses with removable roofs and 65 transit buses were put into service on 6 September 2011, all under the name City Master. The rest of the buses, as well as another 15 cabriolet buses with removable roofs ordered in late 2011.

The cost of the project is over €41 million which was paid by the Macedonian Government.[1]

Some City Masters also appear in some cities in China such as Guangzhou.[2]
The buses are designed in a “retro” style. Former London double-decker buses were used in Skopje until the 1963 Skopje earthquake in which 75%-80% of the city’s infrastructure was destroyed.

The prototype bus appeared on the streets of Skopje on 1 March 2011, under the name ZK6116HGS.[3] UNQUOTE.

Based on the AEC Routemaster of London Transport. Skopje,Macedonia,Balkan Peninsula,Southeast Europe,one of the successor states
of the former Yugoslavia.
