Bunbury City Transit was established in January 1986. On 2 May 2011 it was rebranded as TransBunbury.[2]

Operations

Until 31 December 2014, the service was operated by South West Coach Lines. Upon being re-tendered, it passed to Swan Transit, with a new 10-year contract commencing on 1 January 2015.[3][4][5]

The SmartRider card is valid for use on TransBunbury services.[6]

Current bus fleet consists of: Volvo B7RLE & Mercedes Benz OC500LE, all of which are ex-Transperth

gollark: Maybe call it "Pyramid", after the callback pyramid thing.
gollark: `add(x, y, (result, err) => /* whatever */)`
gollark: Hmm. How about Node.js in the callback era, but MORE SO? Every single operation requires a callback.
