An examination of the varied paths of the American inter-city bus industry from its origins in the second decade of the 20th century to deregulation in 1982. This sector of transport has been much neglected by historians and this book seeks to uncover a range of useful and pertinent information to those who are interested in understanding entrepreneurial endeavours, patterns of mobility and consumer attitudes. It analyzes the development of the national industry, probes the growth of particular companies and investigates specific aspects of business behaviour. The work is presented as a series of focused essays which offer insights into such topics as regulation, marketing, gender patterns and intermodal competition. It draws on diverse archival materials, government surveys and findings, trade publications, interviews and photographs. A wide-ranging bibliographical essay offers a guide to available sources.

Intercity bus lines rolled into 2018 with renewed emphasis on route expansion, ending a period of considerable restraint—and targeted retrenchment—with respect to service offering. A late-year rise in fuel prices and a boost in the rate of economic growth paves the way for new service initiatives while major tech-oriented transformations push the sector in new directions. This report explores the intercity bus industry’s performance and competitive status. Part I provides insights into what can be expected to affect the sector over the next several years based on a review of notable trends. Part II reviews the most significant service changes in various regions of the country, while Part III looks to the future.
