Melbourne Bus Link is a Melbourne bus company, owned by a joint partnership between Dyson's and Reservoir Bus Companies.

It is noted that Routes 215, 216 runs as far west as Caroline Springs, 460 as far North-West as Sydenham and Routes 600, 922 and 923 operate as far south as Cheltenham & Southland.

  • 219 Sunshine Park - City - Gardenvale
  • 220 Sunshine - City - Gardenvale

Depots

Melbourne Bus Link has two depots. One in Footscray and one in Sandringham. The company has 92 buses and 200 drivers in its arsenal.

Services

Melbourne Bus Link services that operate through the CBD provide high frequency services coupled with long operating hours, especially compared to most other routes and rank among of Melbourne's best bus services.

For example, the Route 220 service (that runs between Sunshine and Gardenvale via City), which runs every 15 minutes (or greater) on Weekdays till Midnight, Saturdays every 15 minutes till Midnight, and half hourly on Sundays till after 10pm.

Melbourne Bus Link's local suburban services are much more in-line with the usual Melbourne standard, with Routes 215 (Highpoint - Caroline Springs) & 460 (Caroline Springs - Watergardens) for instance only running hourly at most times.
