Bahrain Public Transport Company (BPTC) is a private joint venture between leading UK-based international transport providers, National Express PLC, and Bahrain-based Ahmed Mansour Al Aali (AMA), the largest and longest-established contracting and construction group in the Kingdom of Bahrain. BPTC boasts over twenty-five years of experience operating similar services across North America, Europe and North Africa. Our strength is in our ability to blend international expertise with local knowledge. BPTC was appointed by the Ministry of Transportation and Telecommunications (MTT) under a 10-year concession agreement to operate the Kingdom of Bahrain’s new Public Transport Network in accordance with international standards and practices. Under the supervision and regulation of the MTT, BPTC is responsible for the operation of the entire public bus network as well as the provision of the upgraded buses, related equipment, and passenger terminal infrastructure.
