Bus Availability

Metro's buses are used every day to move thousands of people around the City and its suburbs, Metro's priority is to ensure that our timetabled services are delivered. As a result there are restrictions on the number of vehicles that may be available for charter at different times of the working day.

However, this doesn't mean we can't help you. Every charter is looked at individually and we are more than happy to talk things through with each client.... your business is very important to us.
