History
The origins of BusBiz can be traced back to 1954 when Lake Boga Transport was formed to transport fruit from the Lake Boga area to Melbourne. In 1960 it diversified into school buses trading as Swan Hill Bus Lines. In December 2016, the Peel Valley Coaches business in Tamworth, New South Wales was purchased. In 2017 the South Australian business of Townsends Travel was purchased.[1][2][3]
