I have started a list of employee and work buses. I have got a good amount of routes so far and hopefully people here can assist in filling the list.
It is linked on Google Sheets purely because this thread would be never ending if I posted the tables here. I have split the routes into 4 categories.
Home - Workplace - Routes here specifically contracted work buses which generally have more stops and at least 1 stop is not a Park and Ride, Bus Station or Train Station.
Interchange - Workplace - Routes here are specifically contracted work buses which only call at a Park & Ride site, Bus Station or Train Station
Local Bus Services - Routes here are registered as a local bus route. Unless otherwise stated, all of the routes in this category should be able to be used by the public to make their a journey.
Internal Work Shuttle - This is for buses which don't pick up anywhere except the companies sites or just does a loop of the site if it is a large site. This can include park and rides just outside if it is part of a normal service.
Where the information is known, I have put the operator. If applicable and again, if known, the primary contractor is noted. The primary contractor being NETS, First Travel Solutions, Zeelo etc. The contractor, is the person to contact with regards to the service and and booking seats. The operator is purely put in for enthusiasts.
If anyone can fill any gaps, it would be greatly appreciated and hopefully this helps a few people who want to spot buses in obscure places and job seekers to spot where an unadvertised bus may run. That said, I take not responsibility for any wrong information and do not rely upon this list for a job or bus spotting, please do some of your own research as well. This is merely there to assist.
RULES:
There must be some evidence online that the service runs recently (so within the past few months) and believed to still run (Buses currently Covid suspended are not included. These can be included as/when these routes restart).
Any services must have a return run. No 'only to work' services. People must be able to return on the same service.
For local bus services, if the bus runs quite regularly, the primary use for the bus has to be for the workplaces. The route/route group should not be a normal bus providing local travel for local people but happens to pass through an industrial estate. That said, diversions at certain times to specifically to serve an industrial estate (for example) do count. Perhaps use some common sense on this.
Bus operator staff routes are not included. This includes home-depot and depot-depot routes. I say this because the lists would be endless.
Uni buses are also not included.
Here is the link, if anyone wants to see or help contribute.
