Linq Buslines collapses with $650,000 debt after fatal Greta wedding crash

Linq Buslines, operator of the fatal Greta wedding coach crash, has shut down with $650,000 in fines.

The bus company involved in the June 2023 Greta crash has folded. The crash killed 10 wedding guests.

The company struggled with mounting debt and fines. On October 16, creditors shut down Linq Buslines.

The company stopped trading in March when it lost its accreditation. An ASIC report shows the company has just $265,000 in cash left after costs.

It owes more than $650,170 in fines from heavy vehicle breaches. Brett Button was sentenced in September 2024.

He received a maximum of 32 years in jail. The groom who booked the coach was Mitchell Gaffney.

He filed a civil lawsuit against Linq Buslines for alleged fraud.
