What are express bus services?

Express bus services are public transportation options that operate on longer routes with limited stops compared to local buses. They are designed to provide faster travel times for commuters by bypassing less busy stops and often using highways or dedicated lanes. Express buses typically connect suburbs or outlying areas directly to major transit hubs or city centers, making them ideal for daily commuters seeking a quicker and more efficient ride.
