Welcome Aboard
This web site details the various bus services operated by Shorelink.
Our reliable bus services will enable you to go shopping, to work, to school or to social events, quickly and comfortably. At the bus stop please ensure you "hail" the bus driver of the bus you wish to catch and where possible tender the correct fare.
Please move to the back of the bus and make the seats in the front rows of the bus available for elderly or less able passengers. For the comfort of all our passengers, please do not smoke, eat or drink when travelling.
Copies of timetables and other information about services we operate are available from:
Finding a Seat
The sooner you find a seat, the sooner the bus can continue its trip. So find a seat quickly, but please leave the front seats vacant for elderly and disabled customers who may board after you.
Signal Your Stop in Advance
Let the driver know you want to get off by pressing the Stop request button as you approach your stop. The bus driver will pull over at the first stop he or she can safely use after you request your stop.
Weekend and Holiday Services
Please refer to individual timetables for details on Weekend and Public Holiday service times. Also please look out for special notices to advise you of these occurrences.
