2024 BIC National Operator of the Year Kangaroo Bus Lines (KBL) is proud to announce the opening of a second satellite depot in Brisbane in April 2025. Proudly family-owned and operated by the Webster family for 47 years, KBL’s opening of the additional depot in the inner Brisbane suburb of Banyo compliments the strategic growth of the company’s Tour and Charter business.
“We are extremely excited to find a good, suitable location in this northern part of Brisbane to strengthen our charter business and deliver greater efficiencies for our clients as we continue to grow this division of the KBL brand,” says KBL CEO Darren Webster.
“The growth we have experienced in recent years supports this strategic placement of our new depot location and assists us in better servicing our Brisbane based clients and customers, along with the work we regularly perform at the Brisbane International Cruise Terminal.”
The Banyo depot will accommodate up to 40 vehicles at full capacity, with onsite refuelling, washing and basic services facilities, along with an office and full driver amenities.
“One of the big advantages we see with this new site is the efficiencies we can pass on to our customers,” Darren explains. “Our coaches will no longer have to sit in the already congested road network travelling to and from our Burpengary head office.”
Managed by a dedicated team based at Banyo, the new depot forms part of the larger KBL business, underpinned by the Burpengary Head Office and secondary Sunshine Coast depot.
“KBL looks forward to offering our clients and customers enhanced transport and logistical solutions from Brisbane City right through to the Sunshine Coast,” Darren concludes.
