Brighton & Hove Bus and Coach Company Limited,[4] trading as Metrobus, is a bus operator with routes in parts of Surrey, Kent, Sussex, and Greater London. Formed through a management buyout in 1983, Metrobus was purchased by the Go-Ahead Group in September 1999 and is now under the control of Brighton & Hove, part of the Go-Ahead Group.
Metrobus previously operated many routes under contract to Transport for London in south and south-east London, but following a restructure, on 1 April 2014 these were transferred to Go-Ahead London under London General. The remaining commercial operations were brought under the control of Brighton & Hove on 1 July 2014. On 2 September 2023, the operations of Southdown Buses were transferred to Metrobus.[5]
