Bus Queensland was formed in April 2009 when the Pulitano Group purchased both the Garden City Sunbus and Kynoch Coaches operations.[1] [2] [3]
Kynoch Coaches was a family-owned business, previously owned by Jason Ward, operated urban, school and long-distance services from its base, in Stephen Street, Toowoomba.
Garden City Sunbus was a division of Sunbus and formed in September 2003 after Hagan's City Bus handed back its licence due to Queensland Transport rejecting requests for higher subsidies.[4]
Bus Queensland operated a network of long-distance coach services from Toowoomba to Cunnamulla, Lightning Ridge and Rockhampton.[5] In January 2015, further contracts commenced for services from Brisbane to Charleville and Mount Isa and from Townsville to Mount Isa.[6] [7]
On 10 December 2021, Bus Queensland's contracts passed to the operators listed below:[8]
| Brisbane to Charleville via Toowoomba, Miles and Roma | Greyhound Australia | |
| Brisbane to Mount Isa via Toowoomba, Roma and Charleville | Greyhound Australia | |
| Toowoomba to Rockhampton via Miles | Greyhound Australia | |
| Mount Isa to Townsville | Greyhound Australia | |
| Toowoomba to Cunnamulla via St George (via Moonie Hwy) | Murrays | |
| Toowoomba to Lightning Ridge via St George (via Gore Hwy) | Murrays | |
