Hello, we’re First Bus.
You might be new here, or you might already know us. We thought we’d take a moment to reintroduce ourselves.
We run your local bus service, but we’re not just a way to travel from A to B.
Getting around is about so much more than just convenience. The bus opens up communities and brings together people from all walks of life. It’s the affordable choice, the choice that’s kinder to the planet, and the choice for all.
