The KEISEI TRANSIT BUS CO., LTD. (京成トランジットバス株式会社, Keisei Transit Bus Kabushiki gaisya)^[1] is a bus company. It was invested by the Keisei Bus (Keisei Group) and Oriental Land Company, and established on 2 February 1999. Keisei Transit Bus has two barns, one in Shiohama Ichikawa, the other in Chidori Urayasu.

Outline[]

This company was established in 1999 in order to transport passengers and staff to the Tokyo Disney Resort by buses.

In 2001, as the buses department of Keisei Electric Railway was split into parent and child companies, the Urayasu Line and Gyotoku Line were transferred to the Keisei Transit Bus from Keisei Electric Railway. Simultaneously, Braki Line and Ōsu Line were transferred to the Ichikawa Kōtsū from Keisei Bus. In 2006, Kaijin Line was also transferred to this company from Keisei Bus Funabashi Office. So, the company has had a bus route in Funabashi. In 2009, Ōsu Line and Baraki Line were transferred to the company from Ichikawa Kōtsū. This company has held five bus routes since then.

This company has commenced operating a highway bus route connecting Chōfu Station (Tokyo) and Tokyo Disney Resort in step with Keio Bus. The Ichikawa・GyotokuーHaneda Airport Line was transferred to the company from Keisei Bus in July 2014.
