TeleBus was originally developed to provide an effective bus service to new estates, where the road network made it difficult for normal bus routes to access the new areas. The success of TeleBus has been due to the "keep it simple" philosophy, and to the enthusiasm of all of the staff involved over the years.
Although we started small, now there are 12 Telebuses operating in Mooroolbark, Lilydale, Croydon Hills, Chirnside Park and Rowville, with the possibility of more to come as suitable areas are investigated. The original aspect of the service (i.e. servicing new estates) is still important, but small buses have recently been "rediscovered" as a cost effective way of providing service in areas of low passenger demand.
At the current stage of development, TeleBus passengers can use the service in two ways. Firstly, they may board or leave the bus at one of the Telebus fixed stops in the area, and pay the normal MET fare. Alternatively, they may telephone and request to be picked up from home, or may ask the driver to be dropped off at home. In either case, passengers pay a small surcharge for this personalised service.
