The Barbados Transport Board (BTB) is a public transportation authority of the government of Barbados. The BTB operates numerous fixed-route bus services throughout much of the country.
The BTB was approved in June 1955 by draft legislation of the Governor of Barbados. The Transport Board was established three months later, on 24 August 1955, by an Act of Parliament.

In January 2026, the BTB added 35 new electric buses to the fleet, bringing the total fleet number to 121 buses.
The agency's buses are blue in colour with a yellow trim and white top. The BTB compete with the privately owned white and maroon stripe coloured route taxis (called ZRs) and the yellow and blue stripe coloured mini-buses.
In the past, the buses had conductors to collect fares. However, in the 1990s automatic fare collection machines were introduced on all buses. The new Wayfarer bus ticket system was introduced in April 2005 for all BTB buses.
