Path Transit


Path Transit is an Australian bus company operating services in Perth under contract to Transperth. It is a subsidiary of Keolis Downer.

History

On 29 September 1996, Path Transit commenced operating services in the Marmion and Wanneroo areas from depots in Joondalup and Karrinyup with 191 Mercedes-Benz and Renault buses.
In January 1998, Path Transit gained further services in the Joondalup North area followed on 5 July 1998 by services in the Morley area. In 1998, a new depot was opened in Wangara. In May 2011, Path Transit lost the Joondalup contract area to Transdev WA and lost the Marmion area to Swan Transit, but retained operation of the Morley contract area. However, in October the following year, Path Transit took over the Kalamunda contract from Swan Transit.
As of July 2020, Path Transit continues to operate the Kalamunda and Morley area contracts.

Fleet

As at July 2020, the Perth fleet consisted of 384 buses while the TransGoldfields fleet had 14 buses. Buses are painted in Transperth livery.
