Gibraltar's New Buses

Gibraltar’s new bus service began on Saturday 10th April, 2004. The service is provided by the Gibraltar Bus Company Limited, (a wholly Government owned company), which has purchased the licences and vehicles of Rock City Services Limited.

To attract greater usage of the new bus service, route frequencies have been greatly increased and buses will keep as much as possible to the published routes, times and frequency.

For the first time Gibraltar will have a bus service that can be used by the disabled, parents with prams and shoppers alike.

These buses provide a service for Route No.3, Route No.4 and Route No.9. A smaller version of these buses is used for the Upper Town area, Route No.2.

The Outgoing Buses

The old Gibraltar Buses have provided a service for many years, but were now obsolete as they could not keep up with current demands.

The unreliability of these machines also contributed negatively to the general environmental ethos of Gibraltar.

Bus Route No.10

Bus Route No.10, is run by another private company, Calypso Transport.

This company only provides transport from the frontier to the Superstore at Europort. It is distinguishable from the other service as it uses the familiar London red Double Decker buses for this route.
