Toronto Bus Service began in 1960 when R.J. 'Bob' Hertogs and his son Robert purchased a small number of buses from Toronto Taxi service. A short time later they were joined by Peter Norris, who took over the maintenance of the vehicles.

Forty-five years later Robert remains Managing director, Peter General Manager, and Robert's son Lincoln working as Operations Manager.

A lot has changed in 45 years, with the business growing to cater for the ongoing development of the western shores of beautiful Lake Macquarie. We now operate 80 buses from three depots and employ over 100 staff.

In our time we have survived the flood of 1981, the Olympic Games and an evacuation during the 2001 bushfires. With this experience 'under our belt' we feel we can handle any challenge the future holds.
