Vermont Translines is an intercity bus company founded by its parent company, charter bus company Premier Coach, in 2013. The bus company mainly serves theUS Route 7 andUS Route 4 corridors in theNew England state ofVermont. Aided by $400,000 in annual federal grant money disbursed by theVermont Agency of Transportation, the company also utilizesGreyhound's ticketing system and connects with other Greyhound bus routes, primarily in Burlington, Albany andWhite River Junction. Service on two routes betweenBurlington, Vermont andAlbany, New York and betweenRutland, Vermont andDartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center inLebanon, New Hampshire officially began June 9, 2014, with intermediate stops at towns and cities between.^[1][2] The restart of intercity bus service for places like Rutland marked the first time some places along the current routes had seen any intercity bus service at all since Greyhound left Rutland in 2008, and in towns likeBennington since 2005.^[3][4]

In August 2017, anAmtrak Thruway bus service known as theVermont Shires Connector commenced, with service between theAlbany–RensselaerAmtrak train station andManchester, also stopping in Bennington in two places along the way.^[5] The route was terminated on July 19, 2021 when Vermont Translines resumed service following theCOVID-19 pandemic. However, the Burlington-Albany route is also designated as an Amtrak Thruway service with a stop at Albany–Rensselaer, supplementing Amtrak'sEthan Allen Express service to Burlington.

All three routes run 365 days a year with one run in each direction per day. Trip planning for all routes are also available onGoogle Maps as of January 19, 2015.^[6]

Vermont Translines' current bus fleet consists of German bus manufacturerSetra coaches numbered 285, 286 and 287, and a Dodge bus numbered 1001. The much smaller Dodge bus is primarily used on theRoute 4 bus route largely due to lower ridership on that route in the first fiscal year of the company's operation.^[7] The buses haveWi-Fi connections, and the three Setra buses have power outlet connections for portable electronic devices and restrooms available.

The company's buses have a mainly white color scheme, in conjunction with a combination of black, gold and green paint. Premier Coach's logo also appears in green on the back of the vehicles, as does Vermont Translines' website address. Drivers dress primarily in green and black uniforms.
