This was a prelude to the privatisation of London bus services. In 2000, it was bought over by DelGro Corporation, one of the two predecessors of ComfortDelGro. Starting 2004, Metroline has grown steadily via a combination of organic and acquisition growth from annual revenues of £175m in 2004 to over £380m in 2017. This constitutes 17% of Group revenues in 2017. It is today London’s 2nd largest bus operator, having achieved this milestone in 2015. It has consistently enjoyed the confidence of Transport for London (TfL) as one of London’s most reliable and dependable bus operators, and in recognition of this was voted ‘Bus Operator of the Year’ at the prestigious 2016 London Transport Awards. Metroline has a reputation for being progressive and innovative. It was the first operator in London to offer fuel-efficient and low-emission hybrid diesel double deck buses for the price of standard diesel double deck buses in its bids for route contracts. By the end of this year, Metroline will have nearly 700 hybrid double deck vehicles, around 40% of its fleet. Metroline was selected by TfL in 2013 to operate the first route (Route 24) run exclusively on the New Routemaster, a new, unique and innovatively double deck bus designed specifically for London. In March 2016, Metroline was asked by TfL to trial the world’s first zero-emission, all electric double-deckers on one of the busiest live routes in central London (Route 98). Developed by Chinese vehicle manufacturer BYD, these buses can do up to 300km of typical urban driving on service routes with a single daily recharge requiring only four hours with fast charging. Metroline is the only London bus operator which undertakes in-house almost all its engineering repair and maintenance work, which helps to maintain a lean fleet, minimises downtime, keeps costs down and helps to achieve operating mileage in excess of 99.6% of scheduled mileage, one of the best in London.
