Partnerships of PTEs, local authorities, bus operators and others have been formed in each region of the country and these partnerships have made arrangements to run Traveline in their particular areas. They collect and organise all of the timetable information, provide systems to search out answers and arrange for the phone calls to be answered. They have also arranged to provide the self-service journey planners on the internet, to which this site is linked.

Traveline provides a data support service for local authorities and transport operators who prepare timetable data for the traveline service.
