Welcome to Arriva Bus Virtual Group. We bring virtual bus operations to life on OMSI 2 using OpenOMSI multiplayer. Join interactive shifts across various maps with real dispatching, custom liveries, and a friendly UK-focused simulation community.
Rotating Schedule & Free Drive
Rather than sticking to a single location, Arriva Virtual hosts multiplayer shifts across multiple popular UK and European OMSI 2 maps. Experience diverse driving conditions, schedules, and route networks!
Arriva Bus Virtual Group is a dedicated simulation community built by bus enthusiasts for bus enthusiasts. Operating primarily on OMSI 2 via OpenOMSI, we bring structured virtual shifts, realistic depot management, and classic Arriva liveries to life.
Whether you are a casual driver looking to hop on a quick route or a veteran simulator driver seeking structured duty sheets and live dispatch voice comms, our doors are open to everyone.
We operate shifts on various OMSI 2 maps ranging from London to regional UK routes.
Exclusive access to custom Arriva Aquamarine & Sapphire repaint packs.
Join active voice channels, share screenshots, and participate in community votes.
Realistic controller radio channels for route requests and depot departures.
Our shift system is flexible and dynamic. Instead of locked-in static schedules on one single map, we host virtual shifts across various OMSI 2 maps using OpenOMSI multiplayer.
Shifts are announced in our Discord server specifying the OMSI 2 map, designated OpenOMSI server room, and suggested bus fleet.
Drivers launch OpenOMSI, connect to the active server IP/session, spawn at the depot, and select an official Arriva livery.
Drivers pick their assigned line and timetable duty sheet. Dispatchers coordinate spacing on radio voice channels to avoid bus bunching.
After concluding runs at the depot, drivers log their completed routes and mileage in Discord (and soon via our custom Driver Portal!).
We are building a bespoke web system designed specifically for our OMSI 2 & OpenOMSI operations. Soon, drivers will be able to log shifts automatically, view real-time fleet allocations, and track their driver progression directly through our custom portal.
Submit route mileage & duty cards with ease.
Earn ranks, awards, and monthly driver trophies.
One-click downloads for Arriva repaint mods.
Personalized driver profile card & statistics.
Preview of driver interface. Full launch details will be posted on our Discord.
We regularly rotate shift locations across various popular freeware and payware OMSI 2 maps to keep operations exciting.
