Broadmeadows Bus Service is a bus and coach operator in Melbourne, Australia. As a Melbourne bus company, it operates eight bus routes under contract to the Government of Victoria.

Broadmeadows Bus Service was formed in 1947 when J Loughnan purchased a service between Broadmeadows and North Coburg Tram Terminus from P Thorne. In the early 1950 coach charter operations commenced. In 1974 services were extended to Campbellfield and in 1985 from Upfield and North Coburg to Craigieburn.

In July 2007 a 50% share in Broadmeadows Bus Service was sold to Moreland Buslines proprietors the Wright family. Both the Loughnan and Wright families sold out to Dom Sita of Kastoria Bus Lines in 2011.

The Western Autistic School uses Broadmeadows' owned buses for student transport.

As at January 2013 Broadmeadows Bus Service operated 45 buses and coaches. The fleet livery is white with a dark brown stripe.
