Barbados Transport Board


The Barbados Transport Board is the government owned bus transport provider in the country of Barbados. The headquarters is located at Kays House, Roebuck Street, while the main terminal is at Fairchild Street in Saint Michael. The other three terminals are: the Constitution River Terminal. The buses are blue in colour with a yellow trim and white top. The buses had drivers and conductors to collect fares, but now have automatic fare collection machines since the 1990s. The new Wayfarer bus ticket system was introduced in April, 2005 for all Transport Board buses. The Transport Board also compete with the privately owned white and maroon stripe coloured route taxis and the yellow and blue stripe coloured mini-buses. The Barbados Transport Board was approved in June, 1955 by draft legislation of the Governor of Barbados. Three months later, an act of Parliament was passed on 24 August 1955, establishing the Transport Board. The Transport Board's fleet of buses that they had purchased were; 20 Hino small buses and 40 Mercedes-Benz Marcopolo Torino GV buses in November, 1996 and Mercedes-Benz Alpha Caio large buses in November, 1997 respectively; 15 Hino smaller buses, 50 Mercedes-Benz Marcopolo Torino and 45 Mercedes-Benz Busscar Urbanuss large buses and air-conditioned large buses in November, 1999, respectively when the air-conditioned units were taken off in late September, 2006; 25 Mercedes-Benz Marcopolo Torino large buses in November, 2003; 5 Mercedes-Benz Marcopolo Senior Marksell smaller buses in November, 2004; and 65 Mercedes-Benz Allison Transmission Marcopolo Torino large buses in November, 2006. As the Transport Board goes further with the future of cleaner, greener transportation, the new 35 BYD K9 electric buses will be shipped to Barbados from China in just a matter of weeks. By the end of December, 2020, there will also be the new 200 electric buses and the new 350 electric-hybrid buses here in Barbados for the New Year of 2021.
Here is the list of current bus routes being operated by the Barbados Transport Board.
