Most public transport operators in Victoria are members of the Public Transport Ombudsman Scheme, which means that we can look at complaints about them. They include bus, train and tram operators, Department of Transport (including PTV) and operators involved in public transport construction and land. See below for a list of operators who are members of the Public Transport Scheme and their contact details.

Bus operators are private companies that are contracted by the Victorian Government to provide public transport services. For a full list of bus operators, click here.
