History
East West Bus Company was formed in August 1980 as a joint venture between Dysons and Reservoir Bus Company operating route 560 Broadmeadows station to Greensborough.[1][2] Route 560 ceased in April 2010 being replaced by SmartBus route 902.
In November 2012, the Dyson Group became the sole owner after Dyson bought out Reservoir Bus Company,[3] and in February 2014, bus services ran in Dysons branding.[4] As of March 2019, all routes are shown in the Public Transport Victoria website as being operated by Dysons.[5][6][7]
Fleet
As of May 2013 East West Bus Service operated a fleet of 17 buses.[8]
