Serving Dunedin for 70 years
Established by ex-servicemen in 1947, the company serviced the greater Green Island community as predominantly an urban service operation, transport deregulation and Ministry of Education tendering in the 1980's saw the company expand into further school transport operations and the greater Dunedin urban market.

Ministry of Education school bus contracts, and commercial urban services are currently operated in the coastal Otago area.

Charter services have always been a mainstay of the business since its inception, with all manner of groups transported, ranging from local groups, through to national touring parties and sports teams

Locally owned and operated
Purchased by the Sutherland family from local Green Island shareholders in 1976, we are proudly Dunedin owned and operated.

A History of Innovation
 Custom built roof racks were fitted to coaches to transport rowing skiffs through out the country in the 1960's

We were the first company to operate minibuses on urban services in Dunedin, custom building 24 seat buses for off peak urban services in the 1980's

Dunedin's first super low floor urban bus services were operated by Otago Road Services in 1997
