The company is headquartered in Spanish Town with its primary hubs being: Half Way Tree Transport Centre (in Half Way Tree, Saint Andrew); North, West and South Parades (NWS Parades) in Downtown, Kingston; and the Spanish Town Bus Terminal. Other main terminals/areas utilised by the JUTC include Papine, New Kingston, Cross Roads, Portmore Downtown and Spanish Town.
The Jamaica Urban Transit Company now has a fleet of approximately 400 buses. The buses are yellow with the Jamaican flag on the front of the bus. The older fleets are white and are currently being phased out. The buses had drivers and conductors to collect fare; however, with the new fleet in 2009, the roles of the conductor were merged with that of the driver. The buses now have automatic fare collection machines as of 2013, with the intention to implement a cash-less system. The JUTC also compete with the privately owned route buses and taxis; which operate on sub-franchised routes provided by the company. Legally, the JUTC is the only provider of transit services in the KMTR.
