About us
Plymouth Citybus, part of the Go-Ahead Group runs the largest bus operation in Plymouth City and surrounding communities. Plymouth Citybus was formed in 1986 to take over the operations of Plymouth City Council Passenger Transport Department. However, its origins can be traced right back to 1892 when its predecessors introduced horse trams to the Plymouth, Stonehouse and Devonport areas. Today Plymouth Citybus is at the heart of the local community; it is a patron of Plymouth Chamber of Commerce and is represented in many local forums affecting life in the city. The company operates a modern fleet, and provides the local service for Plymouth customers. We employ around 550 staff and carry over 18 million passengers a year. We are part of the Go-Ahead Group Ltd, an international transport group and one of the UK’s leading public transport providers.

Getting On Board For Summer Adventures with Citybus: The Go Explorers Campaign. 🐾 We’re excited to announce our collaboration with Citybus for the Go Explorers campaign, an engaging, illustration-led initiative designed to encourage families and children to explore Plymouth using eco-friendly bus travel. Featuring a cast of charming animal characters, the campaign highlights the city's diverse landscapes and promotes sustainable exploration for families this summer. It's been such a fun project and we have loved seeing Pete Clayton bring his colourful character design to a whole array of campaign deliverables. Keep your eyes peeled around town over the coming weeks and have fun spotting the Go Explores! Free family activity packs will be given out on 25th July on the Plaza in the town centre.
