Good morning Mbus community
Please note that Metrobus was NOT ON STRIKE AND IS NOT STRIKING, due to the protest in the inner city and surrounding areas , we could not risk your safety and of our bus operators.
Should there be any changes we will alert you📢📢
Given the anticipated National Shutdown on the 20 March 2023, Metrobus will be running the service as normal on Monday. Our commuters will experience a normal service on Monday
It becomes a great loss not only to the entity but also to our communities to watch something that is beneficial to everyone burns to ashes. Eight buses burnt this morning compromising the quality of service delivery.

As we brace ourselves to move to COVID-19 alert level 3, Metrobus will be running just over 200 buses from the current 72. Lookout for the updated schedule tomorrow. More buses available for your use."We don't just drive buses, we drive the economy"
One of the refurbished buses has been burned this evening on its way to Eldorado Depot. Its a sad case that community Members are failing to protect assets at the heart of service delivery. We are very disappointed with the conduct of the community members involved in this act.

However operations are proceeding smoothly so far.
Please be informed that Metrobus service will be resuming tomorrow morning 2 July 2021, commuters will be allowed in all buses by a show of a tag. You will not be required to tag at all.
Commuter Alert !!!
Due to marches in and around Johannesburg, Metrobus is suspending the service with immediate effect. Operations will resume as soon as it's safe to do so.
The company apologises for the inconvenience caused, but safety is of paramount importance to us.
