About us
We’re Metroline Manchester, the newest addition to the Bee Network, buzzing in Greater Manchester since January ! 🚍
Back in March, we were thrilled to have won four franchise contracts by the Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) – and just like that, we got to work bringing our services to life. We now operate over routes on behalf of Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) from Hyde Road (Head Office), Tameside, Sharston and Wythenshawe depots.
But who are we, really?
Well, our roots go back to when Metroline first hit the roads of London. Fast forward to today, and we’re proud to be the second largest bus operator in the capital, running around 17% of the city’s scheduled services. Not too shabby, right?
Since, we’ve been part of the global transport powerhouse ComfortDelGro, which operates in 13 countries with a fleet of over 54, vehicles and a team of 24,+ colleagues worldwide.
Here in the UK, our 6,-strong team helps over one million customers get where they need to go every single day – and now, we’re doing it in Manchester too!
Hop on board – we’re just getting started. 🚌✨🐝
