The buses form part of the integrated transit network of the Lower Mainland. HistoryThe Coast Mountain Bus Company was created on April 1, 1999, concurrent with the implementation of TransLink. Bus service in Metro Vancouver was formerly provided by BC Transit (the provincial government crown corporation that operates transit outside of Metro Vancouver). ServicesCoast Mountain Bus Company operates the buses throughout Greater Vancouver, except in West Vancouver, which operates its own municipal transit system. One contract operator provides select Community Shuttle service, and another contract operator provides HandyDART services: - 210 bus routes in total
- Regular transit service
- Express coach service to suburban municipalities
- Trolley bus service – 13 routes primarily in the City of Vancouver
- NightBus – special late-night routes after midnight, 8 routes with plans for expansion
- B-Line express buses (3 routes – see below)
- Community shuttles – routes operating minibuses that connect to the larger ones
- SeaBus – passenger ferry across the Burrard Inlet
The regional transit network including bus routes, service levels and fares are set by TransLink. B-Line servicesB-Line services are a system of express bus routes with bus rapid transit elements using mostly {{convert|60|ft|m|adj=on}} low-floor articulated buses. All B-Line routes currently in operation feature all-door boarding {{as of|2018|1|1|lc=y|df=US}}.[4] Three routes currently are in operation: - 95 B-Line: Hastings Street between Burrard station and SFU Exchange, via Kootenay Loop
- 96 B-Line: 104 Ave and King George Blvd between Newton Exchange and Guildford Exchange, via King George station and Surrey Central station
- 99 B-Line: Broadway between UBC Exchange and Commercial–Broadway station, via Broadway–City Hall station
Three additional routes are scheduled to open in the fourth quarter of 2019:[5] - 91 B-Line: 41 Ave between UBC Exchange and Joyce–Collingwood station. It will replace the 43 Express.
- North Shore B-Line: Marine Drive between Dundarave and Phibbs Exchange.
- Lougheed Highway B-Line: Lougheed Highway between Coquitlam Central station and Maple Ridge. It will complement the existing 701 route servicing local stops.
Two lines have been terminated: - 97 B-Line: From Coquitlam Central station to Lougheed Town Centre station. It was replaced by the Millennium Line's Evergreen Extension.
- 98 B-Line: Granville Street and No. 3 Road between Burrard station and Richmond Centre. It was replaced by the Canada Line.
Fare Paid Zones{{more citations needed|section|date=October 2017}}A Fare Paid Zone is a clearly marked territory on which passengers must have valid proof of payment and present it for inspection upon request of a Transit Security Officer. Initially, these were only in effect in SkyTrain and SeaBus stations and vehicles until June 25, 2007, when the law was changed. Now, all buses, including West Vancouver buses, are designated Fare Paid Zones. The reason for implementing Fare Paid Zones on buses was to remove the responsibility of fare enforcement from bus drivers, as too many of them were being assaulted in disputes over fare payment. Fare enforcement on all buses are now the responsibility of the Transit Police and Transit Security Department. Officers may board a bus at any time and conduct a fare inspection. Those who fail to pay the fare and retain proof of payment could be removed from the bus and/or fined $173. FacilitiesCurrent facilities- Burnaby Transit Centre: Located at 3855 Kitchener Street, Burnaby, it was built in 1986. This transit centre is split into two facilities separated by Kitchener Street. Serving parts of Burnaby and New Westminster, as well the North Shore and east Vancouver, Burnaby Transit Centre is also home to many support services such as Environmental Services, Trolley Overhead, Facilities Maintenance, Fire Prevention, and Non-Revenue Vehicle Maintenance. Beginning in September 2016, North Shore transit routes operate out of this transit centre. Fleet Overhaul at this location is where the majority of body repair and repainting is carried out, as well as engine and component overhaul, while minor repair is most likely carried out at the bus's home garage. Fleet Overhaul is in the process of having a new facility built within the Maple Ridge area.
- Hamilton Transit Centre: Located at 4111 Boundary Road, Richmond, this facility opened in September 2016, and took over operations of various South Delta, Richmond, Burnaby and New Westminster routes. It is the second transit centre to have abilities to house CNG buses.
- Port Coquitlam Transit Centre: Located at 2061 Kingsway Avenue, Port Coquitlam, it opened in August 1978. It was the first garage to support Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) vehicles. Serves the Tri-Cities, New Westminster, Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows areas.
- Richmond Transit Centre: Located at 11133 Coppersmith Way, Richmond, it opened on September 4, 2000. It is the main base for the suburban routes served by Orion V highway coaches and local routes in Richmond, White Rock, Delta, and some Burnaby, Surrey and Vancouver routes.
- Surrey Transit Centre: Located at 7740 132nd Street, Surrey, it opened in May 1975. It is the base for most Surrey, Langley, and North Delta services and some White Rock and Ladner services. As of May 2018, it is the third transit centre to have abilities to house CNG buses.[6]
- Vancouver Transit Centre: Located at 9149 Hudson Street, Vancouver, it opened on September 2, 2006. It is the garage for Vancouver bus services. This garage serves the trolley routes, as well as most of Vancouver's buses.
Former facilities- North Vancouver Transit Centre (1946–2016): This depot, built in 1945, was located at 536 East 3rd Street, North Vancouver. It was the base for most North Shore services not operated by West Vancouver Municipal Transit. It closed in September 2016, and all North Vancouver routes now operate from Burnaby Transit Centre.
- Oakridge Transit Centre (1948–2016): Located at 949 West 41st Avenue, it opened in 1948. Oakridge was to be decommissioned and likely sold for re-development beginning in 2007. However, with the arrival of several New Flyer and Nova Bus orders starting in 2006, it remained an active support facility, conducting retrofitting on these vehicles in preparation for revenue service. Additionally, the Oakridge yard was home to many retired coaches, including E901/902 trolleys, New Flyer D40s, and other vehicles. In the second quarter of 2008, as part of a re-organization and expansion at Burnaby Transit Centre, Oakridge took over many of the tasks formerly located at the other facility. The Community Shuttle service was one of the groups moved, making Oakridge an active transit centre once again. However, in September 2016, the shuttle operations were shifted to the new Hamilton Transit Centre. The property has since been sold for $440{{nbsp}}million to a developer.[7]
Management and personnelEmployeesCMBC's 4300+ employees are spread across Metro Vancouver. - The 3700 bus operators, represented by Unifor Local 111, and the 1100 maintenance employees, represented by Unifor Local 2200, work out of the six regional depots.
- The SeaBus staff of 80, including marine attendants, deck officers, engineers, coordinators (also represented by Unifor Local 2200), and office staff work from their North Vancouver location.
- The 600 staff involved in scheduling, training, operational planning, and administrative services are spread throughout the system, as well as at CMBC's head office in New Westminster are represented by the Canadian Office and Professional Employees Union, Local 378.
- In October 2008, CMBC was named one of BC's Top Employers by Mediacorp Canada Inc.[8]
- Coast Mountain Bus Company operates the Transit Security Department for TransLink. Transit Security officers are mobile, ride buses and trains, inspect fares, issue fines and patrol TransLink properties (bus loops and exchanges, SkyTrain stations, SeaBus, etc.) and are authorized to arrest persons who commit criminal offences on or in relation to any TransLink properties per the Criminal Code. Transit security are also authorized to enforce Transit Conduct and Safety Regulations, as well as the Transit Tariff Bylaw.
Labour disputesIn 2001, over 3,400 workers rallied in a strike and disrupted transit service for 123 days, from April 1, 2001, to August 1, 2001. SeaBus service was not affected.[9] Fleet rosterCurrent fleetThe following fleet is owned by TransLink and operated and maintained by CMBC.

Notes- {{access icon|15px}} All vehicles are wheelchair-accessible.
- All CMBC diesel buses are currently running on a 5% bio-diesel blend.[32]
PrefixesLetter prefixes are prepended to the bus numbers on all conventional Coast Mountain buses, except trolleys. Generally, the prefixes are used to identify which garage the bus is operating from. - B – Burnaby
- H – Hamilton
- P – Port Coquitlam
- R – Richmond
- S – Surrey (or Community Shuttle)
- V – Vancouver (formerly Oakridge)
- T – Training vehicle (or HandyDART)
Former prefixesThese are prefixes not in use that were formerly used. - N – North Vancouver (until September 2016)
NumberingSince 2012, Coast Mountain buses are numbered by the order year, series number and unit number. For example, bus number 12001 would have been ordered in 2012, is part of that year's "000" series (denoting New Flyer XDE60 articulated buses), and the first bus received. The order year may not reflect a bus' production year; bus number 12024 is the 24th bus in the same order placed in 2012 but was not produced until 2013. Series numbers vary by year and are often not reused on the same models each year. Community Shuttles since 2016 are always numbered in the "500" series. Prior to 2012, buses followed a legacy numbering system adopted from the former BC Transit Vancouver Regional Transit System, where buses would be numbered by series. Bus number 3334, for example, would be bus number 134 of the New Flyer C40LF/C40LFR 3200/3300 series. Unlike the current numbering system, all bus numbers ending in -00 would be skipped due to BC Transit policy. This was abolished when the new system was implemented in 2012. Exceptions to this are trolley buses, which follow a numbering scheme dating back to the British Columbia Electric Railway era, and older Community Shuttles, which followed either a three-digit system or the four-digit system of West Vancouver. These Community Shuttles carried "S" prefixes to denote "Shuttle" and their numbering systems did not skip bus numbers ending in -00. Additional fleet notesThe first prototype {{convert|40|ft|m|adj=on}} New Flyer/Vossloh Kiepe low-floor trolley bus arrived at the Oakridge Transit Centre on July 2, 2005.[33] The 187 additional vehicles of that type arrived in 2006–2007, and all had entered service by the end of 2007.
